Edge-Cloud Collaboration in Real-Time AI Applications
Subject area: Science,Engineering and Technology · Area of research: Artificial Intelligence and Cloud Computing
Abstract
The proliferation of real-time artificial intelligence (AI) applications across domains such as autonomous vehicles, smart manufacturing, and healthcare demands computing infrastructures that balance low latency, high processing power, and scalability. Edge-cloud collaboration has emerged as a promising paradigm that leverages the proximity and responsiveness of edge computing with the computational capabilities and resource availability of cloud platforms. This paper explores the architecture, design principles, and operational strategies for effective edge-cloud collaboration in real-time AI systems. Key challenges such as data partitioning, model synchronization, latency constraints, security, and resource orchestration are analyzed, along with current solutions and open research directions. We present use cases that demonstrate the efficacy of collaborative edge-cloud AI, and highlight the trade-offs involved in deploying machine learning inference and training tasks across heterogeneous environments. Our study underscores the critical role of intelligent workload distribution and adaptive system design in enabling efficient, robust, and scalable real-time AI applications.
