Request Sample Pages@ By component, the edge software segment is poised for the highest growth rate during the forecast period The edge software segment is expected to achieve the fastest growth rate in the Edge Computing Market during the forecast period, resulting from rising demand for solutions that streamline deployment, management, and orchestration of edge workloads. As organizations move significant operations to the edge, in manufacturing, healthcare, and retail sectors, they require advanced software for real-time analytics, security, compliance, and seamless connectivity across distributed environments. In February 2025, Microsoft emphasized the expanding role of edge-native platforms and toolkits for developers, noting integrations that simplify the build, test, and deployment of intelligent edge applications at scale. In March 2025, HPE highlighted enhancements to its edge software portfolio, including automated lifecycle management and improved support for hybrid cloud environments designed to help enterprises operate efficiently across remote sites. Integrating machine learning frameworks and container technologies, such as Kubernetes for the edge, makes it easier for businesses to roll out, update, and secure applications at the edge, driving rapid adoption. For vendors and solution providers, this momentum creates opportunities to focus on building flexible, modular, and interoperable software platforms that cater to industry-specific needs and accelerate digital transformation. By investing in robust support and training programs, developing open-source integrations, and offering managed services, providers can differentiate themselves and capture a larger share of this evolving market. The shift toward software-driven edge architectures signals a clear trend favoring dynamic, scalable solutions that empower organizations to respond quickly to changing requirements and support next-generation applications efficiently. Inquire Before Buying@ North America accounts for the largest market during the forecast period North America is expected to lead the global Edge Computing Market through its advanced digital infrastructure, widespread 5G availability, and high adoption of distributed technologies, offering a dynamic environment for vendors and enterprises. The region's mature telecommunications networks, strong cloud ecosystems, and deep technology provider engagement enable enterprises to process data closer to its source, delivering real-time insights, compliance, and agility across manufacturing, healthcare, and logistics industries. This infrastructure supports organizations in meeting stringent regulatory requirements and achieving faster, more resilient operations, making North America an attractive region for new edge use cases and investments. Specific developments in May and June 2025, such as HPE's launch of enhanced Edgeline converged edge systems for AI and analytics, and Cisco's expanded IoT Operations Dashboard for centralized management, demonstrate how companies rapidly integrate edge computing into their core operations. For vendors, North America's market dynamics present clear opportunities to increase market share and establish leadership by delivering flexible, industry-tailored platforms, seamless integration, and managed services that simplify adoption. The region's mix of early adopters, technology expertise, and favorable business climate means vendors who anticipate customer needs, prioritize security and regulatory alignment, and support end-to-end edge deployments will stand out.

Amazon expands same-day grocery delivery to perishable foods to compete with Instacart, Walmart
FILE PHOTO: A downtown building is wrapped in Amazon Prime advertising ahead of Comic-Con International, in San Diego, California, U.S. July 22, 2025. REUTERS/Mike Blake/File Photo NEW YORK (Reuters) -Subscribers to Prime service can now receive strawberries, milk, meats and frozen dinners on the same day they order them as the company expands its fast-delivery optionto perishable food items, Amazon announced on Wednesday. It is the latest move by Amazon to compete with grocery delivery services offered by Walmart+ and Instacart. Shoppers in more than 1,000 U.S. cities - including Phoenix; Raleigh, North Carolina; and Tampa, Florida - can get ice cream delivered to their doors within hours, while Amazon plans to expand the service to 2,300 cities by the end of the year. The company announced in June that it is investing $4 billion to bring same-day and next-day delivery services to more than 4,000 rural U.S. communities by the end of the year. Previously, Prime subscribers' grocery orders were fulfilled through Amazon Fresh or Whole Foods. Now the additional service will complete orders through its same-day delivery logistics locations. Same-day delivery is free for Prime members, who pay $14.99 monthly or $149 annually, for orders over $25. Walmart's membership service, Walmart+, costs $98 a year and offers same-day delivery in under three hours—with some orders arriving in as little as 30 minutes. As the largest grocery retailer in the United States, most of Walmart's deliveries tend to be dry groceries and perishables. In May, Walmart said it will soon be able to offer delivery within three hours to 95% of the U.S. population, and that faster delivery speeds are helping drive its business. Between February and April, Walmart reported a 91% increase in deliveries under three hours compared with the same period last year. Amazon shoppers "can order milk alongside electronics; oranges, apples, and potatoes with a mystery novel; and frozen pizza at the same time as tools for their next home improvement project - and check out with one cart and have everything delivered to their doorstep within hours," Doug Herrington, chief executive of Worldwide Amazon Stores, said in a press release. E-commerce giant Amazon has struggled in previous years to get shoppers into its physical stores. While the company is focusing on its U.S. grocery experience, it is facing hurdles in the UK with its suppliers, a study by British grocery regulator the Groceries Code Adjudicatorfound.
