Response: edge computing

Clarification:

Edge computing denotes an open and decentralized IT structure that features decentralized processing capabilities and Internet of Things (IoT) technologies.

Data is processed locally by the device or server rather than being sent to a data center. This paradigm helps to position data storage and computations closer to their sources, thus conserving bandwidth and enhancing response times.

Given that the business seeks to enhance its operations by leveraging data from devices at specific locations for real-time service adjustments, the technology it would integrate with its existing Cloud solutions is edge computing.
