Abstract: Industrial Internet integrates advanced technologies such as 5G communication and artificial intelligence,and integrates various sensors and controllers with perception and control capabilities into the industrial production process to optimize production processes,reduce costs and increase productivity.Due to the centralized deployment of the traditional cloud computing mo-del,the location of computing node is usually far away from the smart terminal,which is difficult to meet the requirements of the industrial field for high real-time and low latency.By sinking computing,storage and network resources to the edge of the industrial network,edge computing can respond to device requests more conveniently,meet key requirements such as intelligent access,real-time communication and privacy protection in the Industrial Internet environment,and realize intelligent green communication.This paper firstly introduces the development status of the Industrial Internet and the related concepts of edge computing,then systematically discusses the Industrial Internet edge computing architecture and the core technologies that promote the development of Industrial Internet edge computing.Finally,it lists some successful application cases of edge computing and elaborates the current status and challenges of applying edge computing technology in Industrial Internet.

Key words: Applications and challenges, Architecture, Edge computing, Edge-cloud collaboration, Industrial Internet
