Key Moments - 2 Insights
Why does the edge gateway process data before sending it to the cloud?
The edge gateway filters and aggregates data locally to reduce the amount sent to the cloud, saving bandwidth and improving response time, as shown in steps 3 and 6 of the execution table.
What happens if the cloud connection is lost?
The edge gateway stores processed data locally (step 5) until the connection is restored, ensuring no data loss.

Full Transcript
Edge gateway architecture involves IoT devices collecting data and sending it to an edge gateway. The gateway processes this data by filtering and aggregating it, then translates protocols if needed to make it compatible with the cloud platform. If the cloud connection is unavailable, the gateway stores data locally. Finally, the processed data is sent to the cloud for further analysis. This flow reduces bandwidth use and improves response times.
