Seamless integration of Machine Learning Inference for Intelligent Edge Devices

As the Internet of Things (IoT) continues to expand, the need for decentralized, edge-centric processing becomes critical. We showcase a comprehensive approach leveraging Java for its versatility and Kubernetes for orchestration, allowing edge devices to seamlessly ingest, process, and respond to streams from a multitude of distributed sources. Edge Processing stands as a pivotal solution, optimizing large-scale data mining and aggregation by relocating the data processing segment of an application to more resourceful devices edge devices within the local network. The integration of GPU-accelerated ML inference on edge devices opens new avenues for harnessing the full potential of AI, fostering a future where intelligent decision-making in IoT is not only accessible via cloud. The talk will commence by outlining the current landscape of IoT networks, emphasizing the increasing demand for processing streams to implement intelligent decision-making at the edge. We will delve into Real-world examples to showcase the transformative impact of GPU-accelerated ML inference on edge devices, enabling the deployment of pre-trained models without compromising performance.
