FogHorn, a developer of edge computing AI software for industrial and commercial Internet of Things (IoT) solutions, today announced plans to collaborate with IBM.
The common goal is to provide an open and secured next-generation hybrid cloud platform with advanced, edge-powered artificial intelligence (AI) and closed-loop system control capabilities.
By bringing together edge and cloud capabilities, FogHorn and IBM plan to help supply chain managers rapidly deploy, process, store, analyze and train critical data from edge to cloud and enhance business processes.
Gartner estimates that enterprises will create and process greater than 50% of their data outside a traditional centralized data center or cloud by 2022. A more decentralized approach, powered by IoT and edge computing, can help to achieve increased ROI from digital transformation projects.
“With computing done in so many places—on public and private clouds and the edge–the challenge that businesses face is to connect all these different elements into a cohesive, end-to-end platform,” said Chris Penrose, Chief Operating Officer at FogHorn. “Through our upcoming collaboration, FogHorn will leverage IBM Edge Application Manager to deliver edge-to-cloud FogHorn solutions for our customers that can help them make more informed decisions with their data, in real-time. Combining FogHorn’s vertical expertise with IBM’s cloud know-how, we will create the opportunity to address a wide range of edge use cases which has the potential to deliver operational savings, improved up-time, reduced waste and lower energy consumption.”
