Preface
How to Use This Book
This book is intended to be read from start to finish in order for the reader to get the most benefit from all of the subject areas which it covers. However, for information on a specific topic, each of the chapters in this book can be read in a relatively stand‐alone manner. There is crossover between chapters in many cases, for example, between a section on the physical redundancy of an edge data centre facility in one chapter and a section describing infrastructure edge computing network level resiliency in another, where if the reader has not read the prior section, some context may be lost.
I hope however you choose to read it that you enjoy reading this book as much as I did when writing it.
About This Book
As with any emerging area of technology, the information presented within this book represents a moment in time and the best practices available at that moment in time. The information here is represented to the best of the author’s knowledge and does not favour one vendor over another.
Audience
This book was written for an audience of technologists, decision makers, and engineers in the fields of telecommunications, networking, data centres, and application development and operation who are interested in new emerging areas of technology, such as edge computing, fifth generation (5G), and distributed artificial intelligence (AI).
About the Author
Alex Marcham has been in the networking industry for over a decade working on wireless networks, enterprise networks, telecommunications, and edge computing. He created the terms infrastructure edge and device edge and was the primary author of the Open Glossary of Edge Computing, which is now a Linux Foundation project. When not at work, he can often be seen hiking somewhere remote.
