Cisco and the Analytics Institute are integrating the former’s unified computing system with the latter’s analytics to create an edge-to-enterprise internet of things analytics platform. The new software will offer analytics for networks based on volume, latency and velocity requirements. The platform will offer data processing remotely from data centres to enable analytics can be carried out using systems on the edge. Analytics CTO Oliver Schabenberger said: “We cannot afford to wait and activate data in IoT in the [data centre]. SAS needs to be ambient. If there is data at the edge, there needs to be analytics on the edge.”
