The vendor's recently created Commercial IoT business unit, which supports its focus on service-led transformation, is breaking with traditional box sales and approaching IoT clients with an outcome-centric value proposition. This consultative approach is implicitly industry- and geography-specific.
LF Edge provides much-needed coordination between the numerous edge computing projects within the Linux Foundation. With interest in edge growing in IoT and more broadly in general IT, the challenges to deploying large quantities of secure, interoperable and manageable edge devices are considerable.
The vendor's approach to edge computing involves unifying all products into one edge strategy. A zero-touch deployment model could help simplify distributed edge deployments, and a partnership with Cellnex and Nearby Computing opens possibilities for an integrated offering that includes application orchestration.
With its new bundle, the vendor is seeking to accelerate time to production for future connected products with a combination of hardware certification, software, infrastructure and professional services. It includes technical support for nontechnology vendors looking to make the leap to the IoT era.
Some form of advanced driver assistance system is installed in 24% of cars currently on the road, and one of the key reasons is Mobileye's EyeQ ADAS platform. The company hopes to combine EyeQ with the trove of mobility data it recently inherited from Moovit, to bring robotaxis to market by 2022.
With the advent of semi-autonomy and the proliferation of ADAS and connectivity features, cars have never produced so much data. Recognizing the enormous potential value of this data, Otonomo has developed a platform that collects and then transforms it into insights that car makers, businesses and municipalities can use to inform decisions.
