System and method for distribution of data in edge systems

A non-transitory machine-readable medium having instructions stored therein, which when executed by at least one processor, cause an edge system to perform operations for managing distributed processing of data, the operations comprising:

• obtaining the data from a data source, the operations being part of an edge side processing service performed by the edge system;
• preparing the data for edge side processing to obtain prepared data;
• classifying the prepared data to obtain a data classification;
• selecting an edge side processing method based on the data classification;
• and
• performing the selected edge side processing method to provide access to the data to at least one data consumer, and a secure connection being used during the selected edge side processing method to distribute the prepared data.

An edge system, comprising:

• at least one processor;
• and
• a memory coupled to the processor to store instructions, which when executed by the processor, cause the edge system to perform operations for managing distributed processing of data, the operations being part of an edge side processing service performed by the edge system and comprising:
• obtaining the data from a data source;
• preparing the data for edge side processing to obtain prepared data;
• classifying the prepared data to obtain a data classification;
• selecting an edge side processing method based on the data classification;
• and
• performing the selected edge side processing method to provide access to the data to at least one data consumer, and a secure connection being used during the selected edge side processing method to distribute the prepared data.
