Interview: Bringing Machine Learning to The Edge

A couple of weeks ago, I spent a few hours at GE Digital's headquarters in San Ramon, CA. It was a great overview by several executives of how GE is using their Predix platform to create software to design, build, operate, and manage the entire asset lifecycle for the Industrial IoT. A big part of this transformation for GE involves hiring tons of software developers, acquisitions, and partnerships. One of those partnerships is with Silicon Valley based FogHorn Systems (GE Ventures, Dell Ventures, March Capital and a few others are investors). FogHorn is a developer of "edge intelligence" software for industrial and commercial IoT applications.
