The Internet of Things (IoT) presents a unique challenge for databases due to large and fast data from various devices, coupled with critical latency requirements. To address this, edge computing has become increasingly important, and fog computing is emerging as a solution that brings cloud principals to the edge. Fog computing enables data communication between IoT devices, edge devices, fog nodes, and the cloud, while handling east-west communication between these components. A database for the "intelligent edge" is needed to handle massive amounts of high-velocity data from various sensors and devices, requiring real-time processing and flexibility in data structures. Redis Enterprise has emerged as a suitable solution, providing blazing fast performance, multi-model capabilities, and a small footprint, making it an ideal choice for IoT applications. The new Azure IoT Edge platform is also emerging as a promising solution, integrating Redis Enterprise to provide a comprehensive edge computing environment.
