Episode 5 - Demystifying the Industrial "Edge"

Have you ever been confused by all of the “Edge” technology in IoT? You’re not alone. In this episode, Jason Shepherd demystifies “The Edge” referencing a comprehensive new white paper being published by the Linux Foundation Edge umbrella project. You’ll not only learn the what and why of “The Edge” continuum, but also how it got to be such a murky and misunderstood subject. Once we’ve demystified the industrial Edge, we explore trends in virtualization at the Edge to accommodate both legacy applications and modern new workloads like Artificial Intelligence and how “cloud native” principals must be driven all the way to the Edge in IIoT architectures to maximize flexibility and long term business potential.
