The Rugged Edge Survival Guide: Transformative Industry Trends & Technologies for 2021

Edge computing is shaping intelligence for many corporate enterprises and new businesses. Dustin Seetoo, Product Marketing Director at Premio, broke down all of the necessary info to bring people up to speed on the latest in rugged edge computers and why this technology is a transformative game-changer for 2021.

“System integrators and machine learning have always been built around compute architecture,” Seetoo said. “But what really is changing in the industry is there is becoming a shift of how data is being evaluated and what needs to be addressed for specific applications.”

As a trend, Seetoo said edge computing is exploding.

“Everyone recognizes that data is the new gold, or, say, the new value,” Seetoo said. “The enterprise companies, or businesses, who put the most investment early on with IoT are now starting to see somewhat of the benefits moving into what is now called edge computing.”

With the emergence of big data over the last several years, there is a growing need for computing solutions to deliver analysis and provide decision-making of that data for IoT’s strategic planning.

The cloud made it possible to run large datasets. The hardware to interact with data is available, but this created an explosion of data that edge computing must come in and make usable.

“All these businesses who are looking at IoT and are looking to integrate IoT and make a lot of their decisions based on data have one main goal: to streamline automation and use these machine-learning algorithms to deliver intelligence,” Seetoo said.

Healthcare generates enormous volumes of clinical data, yet making sense of that information in real time remains a challenge.
