Abstract
In an edge data management methodology, first information is obtained pertaining to a given data set associated with a computing environment, wherein the computing environment comprises one or more edge computing networks and one or more centralized computing networks. Second information is obtained that is descriptive of processing functionalities available at the one or more edge computing networks. Third information is obtained that is descriptive of processing functionalities available at the one or more centralized computing networks. A processing location decision is generated for at least a portion of the given data set based on the obtained first, second and third information. Time cost information may also be obtained that is associated with processing of at least a portion of the given data set, and used to generate the processing location decision.
