VPN vs. OmniEdge
What is the difference between OmniEdge and VPNs?
A virtual private network (VPN) extends a private network across a public network and enables users to send and receive data across shared or public networks as if their computing devices were directly connected to the private network. There is always a VPN server that provides such services. The Users connect to the server and are replayed by the server.
OmniEdge doesn't need any central Sever, which creates a peer-to-peer tunnel between two nodes, builds a virtual network for all the devices which connect to each other.
