The public sector has been using cloud computing and data centers to process and store mission-critical data. However, edge computing has emerged to assist with these practices, distributing data collection, processing, and storage across the ‘edge’ of the network. This discussion will explore how edge-based technologies can assist the DoD and IC in their data collection, computation, and storage in real-time. This event will bring together thought leaders from across the DoD and IC to explore current government initiatives to update existing, legacy databases by combining their infrastructure with the technologies on the edge.
