“There’s a revolution going on with the number of devices on the edge, in terms of just people starting to connect more things to the internet, and so there’s a renewed interest in edge computing. Everybody’s looking at it and realizing that there’s a lot of compute horsepower that’s going to happen at the edge,” Ayres said. “There are discussions of somewhere between 20 billion and 50 billion devices being connected to the internet by 2020, so there’s a big interest in terms of looking at what’s happening at the edge.”
