For the tech industry, finding solutions is a daily priority. So, the discovery of new and improved solutions is always a constant goal for the advancement of this.

In a new episode of “To the Edge and Beyond,” host Michelle Dawn Mooney interviewed Intel Product Engineer Sean Williams, and IOTech CTO Jim White, to discuss how the two companies collaborate on IoT and edge computing software solutions with industry end customers.

In the last several years much has changed in tech and a lot of that change has been bolstered by companies starting to take more initiative.

According to White, less focus on doing trials, and rather applying them is driving better outcomes. “We’re really seeing IOT and Edge emerge as technologies and companies are no longer playing and experimenting with, they’re now putting solutions in the field. So, playtime’s over — they’re having to put things out there that are actually scalable, working, getting real results with their money,” said White.

Finding better solutions with a platform that can offer a multitude of answers is the basis of EdgeX. Williams said it’s similar to an all-in-one but more so a, “… Common platform, a common solution that can solve, if not all, or some of their use cases or a majority of them,” said Williams.

He added that companies tend to have separate solutions for specific problems, but these answers are not exactly foolproof either. “Particularly, we can find some companies will have five different solutions, some five different use cases, but neither one of those solutions can talk to each other or share data and that’s kind of where EdgeX comes in at. It’s a … platform. It allows you to talk to heterogeneous devices that can then solve different types of use cases.”

Hammond tells MSPs to pick a vertical and one problem

Hammond tells MSPs to pick a vertical and one problem

N-able Head Nerd Stefanie Hammond lays out a 10-step growth playbook for MSPs that have built spare capacity, starting with one industry and one problem and a 100-account target list. She argues MSPs have a sales problem more than a lead problem, and points to her go-to-market accelerator program, with classes starting in November.

  • 01Hammond's playbook starts with a written revenue and client-count target, then one industry and one problem, then a 100-account list split 20, 30 and 50, before any campaign spend.
  • 02Hammond says MSPs have a sales problem more than a lead problem: find where proposals stall and whether the right decision makers are in the room before paying for more leads.
  • 03The Dream 100 name traces to a case Chet Holmes International describes: 167 of 2,200 newspaper advertisers bought 95% of the ads, and the first close took five months of mail and calls.

SDLC Corp launches Pulastya AI, a voice agent platform that answers business calls from a company's own documents

SDLC Corp launched Pulastya AI, a voice agent platform that answers and places business calls 24/7 using company documents without requiring a long integration process. The platform connects to existing phone numbers and OpenAI accounts, handles calls that it cannot answer by transferring to staff, and saves full transcripts for context.

  • 01Most teams can complete setup in under 30 minutes once Twilio/Exotel, OpenAI, and documents are ready
  • 02Internal tests showed ~500 ms response; it won’t guess and hands off to staff
  • 03Designed for clinics, banks, real estate offices, hotels, schools and support teams handling administrative and informational calls like appointments, bookings, order status and inquiries

Google Just Put AI Chips in Orbit. The Real Story Is the Power Bill on the Ground.

Google Just Put AI Chips in Orbit. The Real Story Is the Power Bill on the Ground.

Google launched a prototype satellite carrying four Trillium TPUs to test whether the chips can survive launch and operate under orbital radiation and heat constraints, driven by power limits on the ground. It is not a data center but a survival test for durability, radiation resistance, and heat dissipation, signaling that energy availability—not chips or models—is becoming the limiting factor for AI infrastructure growth.

  • 01Project Suncatcher's first satellite is a survival test for hardware durability, not operational compute capacity for actual workloads
  • 02Orbital solar can deliver up to 8x more power, and Google research suggests launch costs could drop below $200/kg by the mid-2030s, bringing space build costs closer to some Earth equivalents.
