How Edge Computing and 5G Wireless will impact the Enterprise Infrastrucure

Edge computing is fast gaining traction as most companies adapt to operating smaller data centers. The main aim of edge computing is to bring the hosting services closer to its potential users. The technology revolving around Edge computing is morphing as cloud and data centers development advances.

The deployments of 5G fast wireless and Internet of Things (IoT) gadgets require the disposition of networks that would necessitate computation and data analytics close to where data is developed. Edge computing enables real-time computing power with the assistance of 5G wireless.

Self-driving cars, robotics, artificial intelligence, analytics and video processing are run by real-time applications. Edge devices include IoT sensor, latest smartphone, security camera or internet-connected microwave.

Wikipedia, the largest online encyclopedia describes Edge Computing as “a distributed computing model that moves data storage and computation closer to the place where it is required.” It originated from content delivery networks, which were developed in the late 1990’s.

The original edge network served both the web and video content from edge-based servers that were specifically deployed near its users. The network, then, evolved to host applications on edge servers. Its first commercial services were hosting applications like shopping carts, ad insertion engine, dealer locators and real-time data aggregators.

How Human Noise Kills Marine Species, as revealed by Scientists

Scientists have warned that the discord of noise made by humans is harming marine species . A comprehensive assessment revealed that large noise from human activities was as harmful as pollution, overfishing and climate change . The study that was conducted by the Journal Science exposed how marine animals can hear from far distances than they can see or smell. According to a report published in the Guardian, most of the marine life uses sound to catch prey as well as attracting a mating partner. Prof Carlos Duarte of King Abdullah University in Saudi Arabia argued that: “Marine animal can only sea up to around 10 meters, smell up to around a hundred meters, but they can hear across the entire ocean basins.” The research concluded that sound “is very important in the marine ecosystems, and noise is pervasive, affecting animals at all levels .” The increasing cacophony in the marine habitat is interfering with how marine animals respond to various survival...

Carbon dioxide to Make Jet Fuel, Study Reveals

Photo Source: twitter.com Aircrafts release a lot of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere which contributes to climate change. A research that was conducted by Science News and reported on December, 22 2020 stated that there was a new iron-based catalyst that has been invented to convert carbon dioxide into jet fuel. It is only a matter of time that carbon dioxide pumped to the atmosphere by planes could be sucked and used to power the same. The air travel’s footprint in carbon emissions could be tremendously curtailed, if the carbon dioxide that is released is recycled to generate fuel. As per Science News reports, Air transport contributes to about 12 percent of the entire transportation carbon-related emissions. Unlike cars, aircrafts cannot carry bigger batteries which can be run on electricity generated from wind or solar panels. The current breakthrough in the conversion of carbon dioxide to fuel involves cheap ingredients such as iron and transformed through a single s...

Why World Tycoons Should Emulate Microsoft founder, Bill Gates, in the Battle against Climate Change

The silent biggest global pandemic is global warming. Global problem deserves global attention; and that is why world moguls and leaders should use their influence to initiate change that can positively impact the world. Microsoft founder Bill Gates has consistently advocated for environment conservation and has been a key personality in the battle against climate change . Gates keen focus has been to increasing access to clean electricity in remote parts of the world. As a key defender of the environment, he is quoted by the Guardian saying that: “The idea of adding new electricity capacity- you can’t just go build coal plants.” The Guardian reported that Gates likes using private jets because he can get affordable fuel for flight. He revealed that he has already footed the bill of carbon footprint to a group dubbed Climeworks , a firm that captures up direct air in Iceland. Gates pointed out that the future of vehicles travels lie with electric cars; but excluded the el...
