Data Patterns on Edge

The misuse of capitalization and non-use of definite or indefinite articles make it impossible to know whether the author is referring to Microsoft's Edge browser, the RedHat Edge concept, or just edge computing in general (see? grammar is important). Edge computing is anything that happens outside the data centre, and most often on end-user computers. The rise of edge computing will be important when we start thinking about privacy-preserving data management and artificial intelligence. This article talks about three major data patterns in edge computing: synchronous data retrieval, subsequent data retrieval, and pre-fetch data retrieval. You can find these patterns in a lot of Javascript applications already, and the thought (however unlikely) of the Edge browser supporting edge data patterns (and hence, in-browser analytics and artificial intelligence) was for a moment alluring to me.
