Suppliers of edge-focused server and storage systems, cloud service providers that offer infrastructure services for the edge, and enterprises that plan their edge-based IT infrastructure spend can leverage this document toward their planning."The edge segment of the workload infrastructure market is rapidly growing, driven by new advances like edge-native platforms," says Max Pepper, senior research analyst, IT Infrastructure at IDC. "Content delivery and networking and security are the biggest drivers of edge infrastructure spending, but we can expect AI/ML workloads to drive spending growth for both those workloads and workloads connected to AI/ML use cases as an expanding number of tools increase the level of AI operations at the edge."
