It concludes with a focus on the need for secure and efficient process handling in edge environments.
What's next in edge computing?
- 1. presents What’s Next in Edge Computing? Tyler McMullen CTO
- 3. The State of Edge Computing
- 6. IEEE EDGE
- 7. What do analysts think? Identified as a “Top 10” technology trend for 2018 by Gartner, IHS, and Forrester. Talk Title
- 8. —Light Reading, 2/28/2018 Content delivery networks were all about edge networking before edge networking was sexy, but the primary purpose of a CDN is localized storage, not localized compute cycles. Now Ericsson hopes to combine the two. The most practical use cases for edge computing are still being determined, but (they are) demonstrating an application that analyzes real-time video and attempts to identify objects in the video stream.
- 10. Wait, what is Edge Computing?
- 16. There is no edge of the Internet
- 18. Device
- 19. Telecom
- 20. Edge Cloud
- 21. Cloud
- 22. There are some… problems.
- 23. Device
- 24. Advantages • Single-tenant • Near zero latency • Low-cost Challenges • Local state only • Limited power • Limited bandwidth
- 25. Applications • Applying models computed at origin • Communication between local devices (IoT) • Privacy! • Some day: True peer-to-peer distributed computations.
- 27. Device level edge computing is not new.
- 28. Device
- 29. Telecom
- 30. Advantages • Very low latency Challenges • Limited state • Limited power • Questionable economics
- 31. Applications • Packet-level routing and shaping • ???
- 32. Telecom
- 33. Edge Cloud
- 34. oh wait, that’s us…
- 35. Advantages • Low latency • Powerful servers • Distributed state • High-speed interconnection Challenges • Not unlimited power • Keeping security bulletproof
- 38. lua %{ function fact (n) if n == 0 then return 1 else return n * fact(n-1) end end }% sub vcl_recv { set req.http.Factorial5 = lua_call("fact", 5); }
- 40. The Problem: Run tens of thousands of processes per second. Each secure and isolated. At near native speeds.
- 41. Code
- 42. Code Process
- 43. Code Container
- 44. Code VM Process
- 48. Advantages • Low latency • Powerful servers • Distributed state • High-speed interconnection Challenges • Not unlimited power • Keeping security bulletproof
- 49. So that’s what we did.
