The Moab Foundation
In August of 2018, I began writing code to create a distributed Digital Twin + Digital Thread platform I called Moab to deliver on the promise of connected intelligence. #IoT
EDGE
Derived Insight Response Time
Internet of Things expert Jill Klein coined the phrase, “Derived Insight Response Time” as a measure of latency or how long you have to wait to derive #analytic insights from #IoT #data.
Collaborating on the Edge
When an #Edge gateway aggregates information from multiple #IoT devices, sometimes it’s helpful for it to share #data with one or more of those devices.
The Edge is your Data Backstop
Sometimes when things like industrial machines or connected cars send overwhelming amounts of #data in small amounts of time, #IoT #Edge devices can serve as an effective data backstop.
Moving Data from the Edge to your Core Platform
Once data has been filtered or analyzed at the #Edge, you’re probably wondering how remaining #data in need of further processing makes it to your Core #IoT Platform.
Edge Gateway Data Filtering Examples
Here’s a quick list of #IoT #Edge gateway #data filtering and bandwidth conservation examples to get you going:
Machine Learning at the Edge
While you might think #MachineLearning is an activity that only takes place in the #cloud or on a cluster of powerful servers, there’s no reason why this can’t happen at the #IoT #Edge.
IFTTT Analytics at the Edge
For a particular device type, it’s easy to start with IFTTT analytics on your #IoT #Edge gateway to get quick answers to questions or filter out the noise of repetitive #data.
Keeping Things Simple at the Edge
I’m a big fan of keeping things simple and the #IoT #Edge is no exception.
A Continuum of Edge Gateway Analytics
There’s potentially a large continuum of #analytics to be performed (or not) depending on the capabilities of your #IoT #Edge gateway.
