Exciting developments such as DeepSeek’s R1 announcement are extending opportunities to run large language models on edge devices. These advancements could have profound implications for edge computing, particularly in the realms of AIOps and observability. By enabling real-time insights and faster automations at the edge, enterprises can enhance their operational posture, drive down costs, and improve operational efficiency and resilience.

Adopting edge intelligence requires careful architectural decisions that balance latency, data distribution, autonomy needs, security needs, and costs. Learn five essential trade-offs to consider in finding the perfect balance.

By providing contextualization within the larger IT estate, AIOps ensures seamless performance, enhanced security, and operational efficiency. Learn more in the final blog in this series.

Many tech executives must become knowledgeable about edge computing technologies, which put compute, storage, and intelligence close to where it’s needed, allowing firms to design and deploy software flexibly between central, distributed, and local sites. Edge computing decisions affect infrastructure, operations, security, partnerships, and innovation in your company. Proactively establish your firm’s edge computing strategy […]

Five things you can do to position your firm for successful supply chain sustainability transformation.

Last year, a number of Forrester analysts discussed how manufacturers are responding to the challenges their industry faces right now. As I wrote at the time: “Energy prices are scary. Supply chain disruptions are scary. Workforce modernization and empowerment are hard. Budgets are tightening. Hardware upgrades are expensive, slow, and painful. Aligning the competing (or, […]

The definition of “asset” has broadened well beyond traditional financial boundaries in the earliest days of IT asset management. Technology stakeholders are often confused over what constitutes an asset, and the technologies to enable enterprise asset management frequently add to this confusion.

“If you want to get there, I wouldn’t start from here.” It’s easy to present beautiful visions of a digitally augmented future, full of shiny new machines (all from the same manufacturer, of course), empowered workers, and AI magic. It’s easy, but it’s often a long way from the reality facing most manufacturers today. Energy […]
