An Architect’s Guide To Edge Intelligence

Edge intelligence architecture integrates various technologies and analytic functions that were formerly confined to the cloud or in-house data centers. They now occur at an edge node which intelligently processes, bundles, refines, or encrypts data to make on-the-spot decisions. This report enables technology architects to power edge intelligence use cases, from enabling simple binary responses (e.g., flipping a switch, closing a valve) to complex analytic scenarios leveraging streaming analytics, federated or edge ML, federated governance, and real-time data management on edge devices.
