Do You Need Specialized Hardware at the Edge?
The “edge” is a term frequently used in technology, often depicted as a network boundary, a remote endpoint, or a terminus far from data centers and the cloud. However, the edge is not just as a technological concept but is also a tangible place with unique and complex challenges.

Tsecond's BRYCK Platform is Redefining Data Management at the Edge
The vast majority of data is no longer confined to traditional data centers. Instead, it’s generated and processed at the “edge” — in locations ranging from autonomous vehicles to remote oil rigs.

Site Autonomy and Offline Application Management at the Edge, with Avassa - Gestalt IT
In this Edge Field Day article, Sulagna Saha writes about how edge computing is revolutionizing the digital economy but faces challenges in adoption, particularly during upstream outages. Avassa's CTO Carl Moberg highlights the need for business-critical applications to operate close to data sources and survive connectivity disruptions, which Avassa addresses through new offline application operation features. These enhancements allow edge sites to autonomously manage applications during outages, ensuring resilience through self-healing, asset replication, and offline modifications without relying on the central cloud.
