With industry
predictions of the connection of billions of installed devices and embedded
sensors over the next 5-years and the success story in North America, Europe is
on the edge of large-scale deployment of this critical technology. Sectors such
as automobile, manufacturing, utilities, oil and gas, gaming and retail are
turning to Edge technology with Germany boasting a first mover advantage when
it comes to regulation, technological adoption and standards.
The focus of Edge Europe at present is in
deploying within the aforementioned complex manufacturing plants, and in
developing automated car systems and motorways. Smart factories offer a very
interesting case study as technologies and devices within a typical
manufacturing plant delivering precision engineering, the storage and security
of data necessary to facilitate this becomes more and more critical.
With this in
mind, the premier gathering of Edge technology manufacturers, early adopters of
Edge and the new wave of Edge deployers Edge Europe 2020, will be hosting this
year's European event in Frankfurt, Mainz, Germany 26th March.
Speaking at the
event this year includes; AJ Byers, President International, Compass Data
Centers, Mathieu Duperre, Chief Executive Officer, EdgeGap, Jason Rylands, Vice
President, Business Development, German Edge Cloud, Eddie Kilbane, Chief
Executive Officer, DataPlex, Harald Summa, Chairman, DE-CIX.
The agenda will
be a mix of seminar sessions from keynote speakers, panel discussions from
thought leaders and early adopters, roundtables and a unique Q&A session.
Topics include, Leaders at the Edge, which covers broad strategic priorities
for edge, exploring how the market has developed to date and the direction in
which it is going. An overview of Enterprise activity and strategy will include
speakers from automobile, manufacturing, rail and IoT to give a unique view of
their IT strategies.
The roundtables
are hosted by an industry expert who will moderate a session between 10 - 15 of
your peers while they openly discuss pain points such as budget. This format is
an opportunity for you to have a deep dive and interactive examination of the
most pressing topics. Injecting life into the ecosystem at the Edge is an
insightful examination of the ecosystem.
