Smart sensors and devices are becoming an important part of the Internet of Things. They are continuously changing the way we automate our jobs by employing intelligent systems to improve production of factories, manage smart home energy to monitor and reduce energy costs, and even automate transportation to improve driver safety. Sensors on Edge networks are transmitting data that must be processed for online and offline data analysis so the system can analyze the large quantity flow of data and only store the most valuable information. But how are we able to capture, process and manage the flow of data to empower embedded intelligent systems to make decisions and take action at the Edge?
In this white paper, we will share the benefits of Edge database software for empowering applications to efficiently extract the valuable data from smart sensors and intelligent devices, make sense of the data captured, and intelligently select and store potentially important and alarming information. We also explain how embedded systems can take advantage of data management and processing to inject intelligence into the system for making autonomous decisions and taking action.
