IoT Slam 2020 Session: Unbundling the interface mess to enable scalable AI &; IoT applications
Session Abstract:
The number of IoT devices is skyrocketing and companies are evolving from creating transparency into their operations (remote monitoring and predictive analytics) towards their vision of autonomous operations.
But several challenges exist:
– AI models rely on homogenous data models
– Incoming data streams need to be interpreted, aligned, and transformed into the common models
– Data needs to flow between edge and cloud – across various cloud and IT system providers
Solving one of the biggest IoT challenges requires systems to be polyglot. We will highlight approaches from the automotive and manufacturing industry how fleet companies and factory operators are tackling the specific challenges in their world with horizontal software tools that empower their domain experts and citizen developers.
