dc.description.abstractThe adoption of edge computing in Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) underscores its ability to address the regions unique challenges, including limited connectivity and the need to process data in remote locations. Innovative projects in smart public lighting, urban security, and sustainable resource management highlight the transformative impact of edge computing in improving quality of life and operational efficiency. Looking ahead, edge computing stands at the forefront of technological innovation. Deeper integration with artificial intelligence and the rise of 5G will unlock fresh opportunities for Internet of Things (IoT) applications. Moreover, the evolution of Edge as-a-Service promises flexibility and efficiency for businesses of all scales. Data security will continue to be a focal point, with novel solutions aimed at safeguarding information in this decentralized setting
