Abstract
An edge node has a central processing operable to gather sensor node data via a sensor and store at least part of the sensor node data locally in a public region of a persistent storage. The edge node backs up duplicate portions of the sensor node data to public storage regions of peer-edge nodes. The edge node receives private data from a host that is coupled to the edge computing node and the peer edge nodes, and stores the private data in a private region of the persistent storage. The private region is protected from the peer edge nodes using distributed key management.
