Abstract
This IDC study provides a detailed description of IDC's segmentation of the hardware, software, and services that are foundational and necessary resources to digital business and operations at the edge. Edge resources span many locations and are offered through many deployment models, including company-owned and service provider owned and operated. This document provides IDC's definitions of the market segments for edge to help technology providers understand how IDC views the highly distributed and diverse edge ecosystem.
"Location matters more than ever as organizations seek to shift to data-driven decisions, ensure security, and leverage intelligence to create better outcomes. The edge ecosystem continues to mature and evolve. Infrastructure, application, and services providers are all addressing the unique challenges of highly distributed digital resources." — Jennifer Cooke, research director, Edge Trends and Strategies at IDC
