What are the specifications of edge computing boxes? This article takes you to understand the edge computing cloud server ECS

Last time we described in detail that the "white box" that we can see anytime and anywhere in our daily life is the edge server ECS, including what the specific purpose of the edge server ECS is, and we also carried out scientific popularization for everyone one by one.

 Interested partners are welcome to read previous articles:

What is an edge computing box? What can an edge computing box do? This article takes you to understand the edge computing cloud server ECS

  The above briefly lists the various specifications of the edge box for you. Today, I will further explain to you which scenarios different edge box specifications are suitable for. It is convenient for you to choose the ECS hardware specification of the edge server in the future.

In the mainstream edge boxes, the computing power is generally divided into low, medium and high levels for different practical application scenarios. 

• High-end computing power: Nvidia AGX, Nvidia Orin, etc.; to meet the high AI requirements related to vehicle-road coordination and industrial quality inspection

• Mid-range computing power: Nvidia NX boxes can meet the needs of cost-effective, more universal, and more scenarios.
• Lower computing power: low computing power composed of nano, domestic and other core modules, oriented to small computing power requirements and small scenarios

In addition to edge boxes, there are also edge servers, edge cabinets, and industrial computers:

• Edge server: For edge boxes, the edge server has stronger computing power and supports flexible expansion. In extremely harsh environments, edge servers can also operate normally and adapt to harsh environments.

• Edge whole cabinet: Build an edge data center to support integrated data integration; support dynamic ring monitoring, and you can see the specific operation status of the entire whole cabinet on the top of the cabinet.

• Industrial computer: It mainly meets the needs of various scenarios of industrialization.

After introducing the basic specifications of the edge box, the following is a detailed list of the specifications of the edge server ECS hardware.

I hope it can help you make specification choices in different application scenarios.
