New IDC Spotlight reveals key factors behind the shift from centralized cloud to a distributed approach:
- Apps requiring real-time interaction need a distributed architecture to minimize latency and deliver a more responsive user experience.
- Scaling a single site to serve worldwide traffic is complex and expensive. Distributed systems can scale horizontally to better accommodate user growth.
- Processing data locally within a distributed network reduces the need for long-haul data transfer, lowering egress fees.
