Edge Native Podcast Sebastian Scheele & Sascha Haase

Welcome to our edge native podcast! In this episode, we speak with Matthias Brockmann and Moritz Kröger from the Cluster of Excellence “Internet of Production” at the RWTH Aachen University. They speak about Industry 4.0 and explain why their research project is so beneficial for researchers as well as for the industry. We get exciting insights on why we need to accept that Germany is not the first player in the digitalization game and why we should think about upgradability for manufacturing machines if we want to shape the future.
P.S.: Little heads-up for those of you who haven’t seen the Terminator yet – spoiler danger!

Time for a new episode! What’s happening on the edge from a hardware point of view? That’s what we wanted to know from our guest, Michael Clegg, VP & GM 5G, Embedded/IOT at Supermicro. From him, we learn why we see such a big growth in private 5G networks and what requirements are necessary  to fulfil the big promise of 5G’s low latency. Moving to a remote environment will be challenging and come with higher costs of access and unreliability of the network. How to manage such a complex virtualized network? Plus, an exciting outlook: will there be a battle over the best spot at the edge?

Edge time! In this episode, we speak with Jim Brisimitzis, Founder & General Partner at 5G Open Innovation Lab. From Jim, we learn how heavily we actually rely on AI and machines  to  make innovative business models such as autonomous vehicles, drones or remote surgeries  feasible. Also, Jim showcases why stepping into the private enterprise networking means stepping into a lucrative world. And how does agriculture and farming fit into the whole edge context? 

It’s edge time again. In this episode, we speak with Jim White, CTO at IOTech Systems. Jim explains why visual inference with new Machine Learning technologies will be critical to a lot of use cases and what other exciting innovation topics he sees for edge and IoT. While being optimistic about bringing some of the cloud native technologies to the edge, Jim keeps a critical stance: getting solutions deployed at a massive scale will be difficult – can we take advantage of the lessons learned in cloud native environments to master the challenges? And beyond that, what does a rolling truck have to do with all that? 

Let’s talk about the edge again – but in a different setup this time. Role change: the guest of our previous episode, Sriram Vishwanath, CEO & Co-Founder at GenXComm, is our host and welcomes his guests, Sebastian and Sascha. Together, they discuss why cloud native is so essential for enterprises and why this technology might be the game changer for a successfully working homeschooling system. 
Let’s see if Sriram is as charming a host as he is a guest:) 

In this episode, Sebastian and Sascha meet Sriram Vishwanath, CEO & Co-Founder at GenXComm. Together, they discuss if 5G will be private or public and what a 5G mesh could look like. Moreover, they talk about the most valuable resource on this earth and investigate if we should start worrying about our good old Wifi.
