Dell makes $1bn bet that IoT at the edge can kill cloud computing takeover

WmT

Can you express an opinion that adds to the thread?

obviously whoever invests in something has an effect. The .com failure of 2000 happened because? The big data storm became? The big cloud is everything became? Everyone wants to hop on the next big thing even just to stand on top of it and say......"it's no big thing"

Is there like any thoughtful discourse or is this all that there is? Do you know whether quantum computing will ever exist? Do you have a premise to prove it......an analogy......like Einsteins train thought experiment.....can you get it out of you and into print?

distributed computing, nfc, stored models and real time

So, what Dell is proposing is good and that is the future....to a degree. So is cloud computing, so is metadata computing that shifts according to current model usage. For example a human body works with direct connection at the spinal level, neuron growth and maintenance is determined by usage.....classes of behavior are determined by preexisting behaviors used and stored.....there have to be recognized sliding classes of behavior and something to control them....plus quantum computing blah blah blah..... so if you are planning on designing a system "right now" you'd better understand materials science, biophysics, atomic level storage of data and the pathways to be at the future state level need to start existing in your code, buys and thought processes right now......AI on a Chip GPU's that make decisions along with AI....blah blah blah.....I'd talk more but no one is paying me
