The Linux Foundation Akraino Edge Stack community is conducting a mini-summit on August 19-20th in San Diego. The mini-summit will be hosted at Qualcomm headquarters and will occur the two days before the Linux Foundation Open Source Summit North America.
The event will cover demos of Arkaino Release 1 blueprints, planning for Akraino Release 2 and discussions on edge APIs and other edge computing related technical topics. Led by experienced architects, designers and implementers, the mini-summit will provide a unique opportunity to learn best practices and acquire needed skills in edge computing space. There is no cost to attend the event and we encourage everyone interested in edge computing infrastructure to attend.
Akraino Edge Stack, a Linux Foundation project initiated by AT&T and Intel focused on developing a fully integrated edge infrastructure solution. The project is completely focused towards Edge Computing. The open source software stack provides critical infrastructure to enable high performance, reduce latency, improve availability, lower operational overhead, provide scalability, address security needs, and improve fault management. The Akraino community addresses multiple edge use cases and industries, not just the Telco Industry. Akraino community develops solutions and supports carrier, provider, and IoT networks.
Thus, the mini-summit will provide the access to most comprehensive coverage of topics in edge computing space and provide a unique opportunity for peer networking to connect with fellow professionals and expert practitioners from industry-leading companies such as AT&T, Intel, Ericsson, Nokia, Qualcomm, ARM, Juniper, RedHat, Wind River and others.
