Abstract
This application describes apparatus and methods for distributing computing resources using edge-computing. Apparatus may include an edge node that is positioned in a target geographic region. The edge-node may include information needed to process transactions that occur locally in the target geographic region. The edge-node may process the transaction without communicating with a central server. The edge-node may support processing transactions on behalf of a variety of financial institutions and merchant processing systems. Processing the transaction locally may reduce computational resources typically required by region server to process high volumes of transactions. The edge-nodes would process transactions locally, close to a location of at least one party to the transaction.
