Enabling a Cloud-native Edge for IoT Scale - Jason Shepherd, Dell Technologies

New architectural approaches must be adopted to accommodate the sheer volume of data generated by billions of networked sensors in addition to providing flexibility in how collected data is integrated, analyzed and monetized as part of the broader IoT ecosystem. This session explores the concept of extending cloud-native principles to the network edge to address these needs as well as outline how the open source EdgeX Foundry project is aligned to this paradigm with the goal of simplifying how sensors connect to an interoperable ecosystem of distributed computing applications.
