Internet today most common setup is client devices connect to servers that are in major data centers (cloud) that are in locations far from where this client devices are. This makes response times to client devices not fast enough for certain kind of use cases.
MEC is brought in to improve this by placing the processing of data closer to client devices, by creating a new layer of service that is closer if not inside the client hardware itself, so that response times are way faster and speed critical services can work better.
A good example of this would be IoT car driving assistance services, where response times are critical and reducing network latency (response times) is crucial.
