Intel creates hardware and software for any type of compute platform. Our edge computing product Smart Edge provides a way to orchestrate and run low-latency or bandwidth-intensive compute workloads on a private 4G and 5G edge network, within a hop of the end user’s device. Smart Edge was acquired by Intel in October 2019.
