Host Theresa Houck, Executive Editor of The Journal From Rockwell Automation and Our PartnerNetwork magazine, chats about all things edge computing with Jason Andersen, Vice President of Strategy and Product Management at Stratus Technologies, a Rockwell Automation Encompass Product Partner. 

We answer the question many people have: What is edge computing, and how is it different from the cloud? You’ll learn how to know if it will help you, with considerations for types of applications and the amount and speed of data collection. We chat about what’s involved in implementing edge computing and examples of edge computing at work in real companies. Jason also describes how OEMs are using edge computing to provide new capabilities for customers.

And of course, get your family-friendly, silly Joke of the Day.
