Microsoft plans to support Carnegie Mellon’s edge computing research with hardware, Azure services
Like cloud computing and mobile computing, edge computing will require new ways of thinking about application development; older methods designed for different styles of computing make certain assumptions about performance and availability that don't necessarily make sense on the edge.
10 years is an eternity in the tech world, but we are just getting started
