Edge computing is a distributed information technology (IT) architecture in which client data is processed on the periphery of the network and as close as possible to the original source.

Data is the lifeblood of modern business, providing valuable business insights and supporting real-time control of key business processes and operations. Today’s enterprises are flooded with massive amounts of data, which can be collected regularly from sensors and IoT devices operating in real-time in remote locations and harsh operating environments around the world.

However, this kind of virtual data proliferation is also changing the way companies handle computing. The traditional computing paradigm built on centralized data centers and the daily Internet is not suitable for the growing real data rivers of mobile. Bandwidth limitations, latency issues and unpredictable network outages can all conspire to weaken such work. Filenet is responding to these data challenges by using edge computing architecture.

In the simplest terms, edge computing moves certain parts of storage and computing resources out of the central data center and closer to the data itself. Instead of transmitting raw data to a central data center for processing and analysis, the work is performed where the data is actually generated.

Filenet(FN) is the world’s first public chain of distributed storage application who has lauchned the mainet, and is also the world’s first public chain of distributed storage application using DPOS + POC consensus mechanism.Filenet is dedicated to storing and distributing valuable content, rewarding miners in the form of mining to contribute idle bandwidth and storage. The mission of Filenet is to establish a powerful distributed data service system by connecting all idle storage to form, so any storage device that can connect to the Internet can participate in mining. Generally, Filenet is a super cloud system based on distributed storage and content sharing.

Therefore, Filenet is reshaping IT and business computing.
