S6|E18 Edge Compute Physical Infrastructure Considerations

Cisco Champion Radio

How is Edge compute defined? How does Edge Compute fit within your overall network design? How is Panduit doing it? What are some IoT applications? All that and more! Cisco Champions: Jeff Levensailor (twitter.com/levensailor), Cisco Champion member, Developer Engineer, Presidio. Steve Kostyk (twitter.com/lightbulb1), Cisco Champion member, Lead Network Engineer, Avangrid. Cisco Guest: Peter Jones (twitter.com/petergjones), Distinguished Engineer. Other Guest: Brian Kelly, Mgr, Network Architecture Research, Panduit. Moderator: Brett Shore (twitter.com/brettshore), Product Marketing Discussion Topics: - Edge Computing defined - Fog – a cloud that’s close to you - Are there extra costs with Edge Computing? - CORD initiative (Central Office Rearchitected as a Data Center) - The concept of Right-Location – think about the value edge compute brings to the assets it’s supporting. - CDNs (The original edge compute location?) - Examples of edge compute (like Amazon’s Outpost) - Reasons you might not want to put some on-prem content on the public cloud. - Panduit’s 4 environments for Edge Computing o Highly Protected Indoor o General Indoor o Harsh Indoor o Outdoor - Panduit’s NEMA devices - What’s a classic example of Edge Compute? Virus scanning! - The key to Edge Compute? Remote management…. dare we say, Single Pane of Glass? [Bingo!] - IoT applications for Edge Computing - What is the cost of unplanned outages? - How is Cisco changing by becoming Customer Zero? Ruthless standardization.
