In this study, the effect, difficulties, and possible benefits of cloud and edge computing on the landscape of education are examined. The specific focus of the study is on how bettering educational procedures and results may be accomplished by integrating cloud and edge computing technologies. This essay's first focus is on the issue of resource scalability and optimization in educational settings. Utilizing cloud computing allows educational institutions to effectively manage and distribute resources, improving operational performance and cost-effectiveness. To provide uninterrupted access to educational resources even in low-bandwidth situations, edge computing is also looked at as a potential solution to connection and latency problems. The difficulty of data security and privacy in cloud-based educational systems is also highlighted by this research. It examines the significance of sound data management techniques and looks into ways to safeguard private student data. The results highlight the need of putting in place strict security controls to protect student privacy while reaping the rewards of cloud and edge computing technologies. The last section of this essay discusses the outcomes of merging cloud and edge computing in educational contexts. It demonstrates how cloud-based LMSs improve accessibility, collaboration, and customized learning experiences. The study also shows how real-time data processing on the edge might support adaptive learning strategies and intelligent educational apps. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
