Edge computing has transformed how businesses and industries process and manage data.
The 7 most pressing edge data-related challenges coming in 2025 are data security, data overload and storage limitations, real-time data processing bottlenecks, interoperability between edge devices, data sovereignty and compliance, sustainability in edge deployments, and talent and expertise shortages.
To address these challenges, organizations should adopt a zero-trust security framework, employ data reduction techniques and tiered storage systems, optimize edge workloads, adopt open standards and APIs, implement edge governance policies, invest in energy-efficient edge devices, and build talent pipelines.
Organizations that proactively address these hurdles will be well-positioned to unlock the full potential of edge technology in the years to come.
