Teams deploy computing resources and data handling applications closer to data sources at the network\u2019s edges, eliminating transmission latency and preventing data from leaving the local security perimeter. The current edge computing ecosystem consists mainly of solutions designed around individual use cases that lack interoperability with each other or a centralized management platform. That means most organizations end up with a disjointed edge computing architecture without any organized strategy.<\/p>\n<p>According to<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gartner.com\/en\/documents\/4263499\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> Gartner<\/a>, companies that deploy edge computing non-strategically are less efficient and lack the agility and scalability to meet their digital transformation goals. This post discusses the challenges created by a fragmented edge computing market before providing edge computing ecosystem design best practices to overcome these hurdles.<\/p>\n<h2>Edge computing ecosystem challenges<\/h2>\n<p>Most <a href=\"https:\/\/zpesystems.com\/gartner-market-guide-for-edge-computing-zs\/\">edge computing vendors<\/a> offer products designed around a single use case or workload, such as analyzing machine logs to provide predictive maintenance recommendations for a specialized robotic manufacturing arm. These solutions don\u2019t interoperate with each other or integrate with centralized orchestration platforms from other vendors, so each one is managed independently, often by the individual departments that use them. This fragmented architecture creates three major problems that prevent organizations from operating securely and efficiently: shadow IT, edge sprawl, and a lack of edge resilience.<br \/>\n[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_code _builder_version=&#8221;4.24.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; locked=&#8221;off&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><\/p>\n<div dir=\"ltr\" style=\"margin-left: 0pt;\" align=\"center\"><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><\/p>\n<table style=\"border: none; border-collapse: collapse;\"><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --> <\/p>\n<colgroup><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --> <\/p>\n<col width=\"140\" \/><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --> <\/p>\n<col width=\"484\" \/><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --> <\/colgroup>\n<p><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><\/p>\n<tbody><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><\/p>\n<tr style=\"height: 23.25pt;\"><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><\/p>\n<td style=\"vertical-align: top; background-color: #214c64; padding: 5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt; overflow: hidden; overflow-wrap: break-word; border: solid #000000 1pt;\" colspan=\"2\"><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><pee dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.2; text-align: center; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;\"><strong style=\"background-color: transparent; color: #ffffff; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">Edge Computing Ecosystem Challenges<\/strong><\/pee><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><\/td>\n<p><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><\/tr>\n<p><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><\/p>\n<tr style=\"height: 23.25pt;\"><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><\/p>\n<td style=\"vertical-align: top; background-color: #008aab; padding: 5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt; overflow: hidden; overflow-wrap: break-word; border: solid #000000 1pt;\"><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><pee dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.2; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;\"><strong style=\"background-color: transparent; color: #ffffff; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">Shadow IT<\/strong><\/pee><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><\/td>\n<p><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><\/p>\n<td style=\"vertical-align: top; padding: 5pt 5pt 5pt 5pt; overflow: hidden; overflow-wrap: break-word; border: solid #000000 1pt;\"><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><!-- [et_pb_line_break_holder] --><pee dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.2; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt;\"><span style=\"background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;\">Shadow IT occurs when individual departments or users purchase technology solutions without the knowledge, approval, or support of IT.
