Incorporating Internet of Things (IoT) technologies into smart building automation brings forth challenges related to data processing, latency, and security. This study investigates a cloud-edge architecture aimed at mitigating these concerns by improving data management and facilitating real-time decision-making. The approach utilizes a layered methodology comprising IoT devices for gathering data, edge computing nodes for local data processing, and cloud services for comprehensive storage and analysis. Various case studies are analyzed to demonstrate the application of this architecture in different smart building scenarios, showing marked enhancements in energy efficiency, occupant comfort, and reductions in operational costs. The findings reveal that processing data locally at the edge minimizes latency and bandwidth usage while strengthening security protocols. This architecture simplifies building management and establishes a foundation for future advancements in smart building technology. The conclusions for the industry suggest that embracing cloud-edge architectures can result in more sustainable and efficient building environments.
