EDGE COMPUTING BY THE NUMBERS Edge processing is one of the top strategic technology trends of 2020. (Gartner) The global edge computing market will grow from $2.8 billion in 2019 to $9.0 billion by 2024, at a compound annual growth rate of 26.5%. (Markets & Markets) 46% of the growth in the global edge computing market will take place in the Americas. (Technavio) 75% of the data generated by IoT will be processed on the edge of the network by 2025. (Gartner) 70% of U.S. households subscribe to at least one streaming service, the average user subscribes to 3.4 streaming services, and customer engagement rises as latency declines. (vXchnge) The worldwide market for autonomous vehicles, which must be able to process enormous amounts of information in transit, is projected to hit $556.67 billion by 2026. (Allied Market Research) The health care IoT market is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate of 19.9% until 2025, driven largely by the desire of providers to manage chronic illness with real-time data monitoring. (Grand View Research) Worldwide spending on " smart city " technology, which will generate vast amounts of data to be acted on in real time, is expected to reach $135 billion by 2021. (IDC) The number of academic papers related to " edge computing " has grown tenfold since 2015.
