Description
Edge intelligence is the combination of business intelligence and automation that can sense and synthesize massive volumes of data and make decisions close to the data collection point. Applications include collecting, analyzing, and communicating data within the specified ecosystem and making real-time decisions to achieve unprecedented levels of reliability and efficiency. Earlier, monitoring systems used to gather data and communicate the same to the central control system to trigger alerts or generate standalone reports and displays for users. In today's edge intelligence architecture, the grid is designed to perform a host of functions, including decision making, close to the point of data collection, at speeds that centralized systems cannot match. This study includes a discussion of key drivers and challenges that influence the demand for edge intelligence.
