The edge computing “market” has several key and different segments, including edge computing infrastructure, enterprise software, “as a service” computing services, devices and some amount of real estate and communications activity. Hyperscale computing as a service suppliers are emerging in key and leading roles.
Amazon Web Services has developed AWS Snowcone, a small, ultra-portable, rugged, and secure edge computing and data transfer device.
At under 5 lbs. and able to fit in a standard mailbox or a small backpack, AWS Snowcone is the smallest member of the AWS Snow Family of devices, enabling customers to collect data, process it locally, and move it to AWS either offline (by shipping the device to AWS) or online (by using AWS DataSync to send the data to AWS over the network).
“AWS Snowcone is built to withstand harsh conditions and is designed for a variety of use cases in environments outside of the traditional data center that lack consistent network connectivity and/or require portability, including healthcare, industrial IoT, drones, tactical edge computing, content distribution, data migration, video content creation, and transportation,” AWS says
