    428: Sprinkling a Little IoT

    Jonathan Beri, CEO of Golioth, categorizes the complex IoT landscape into five distinct 'clouds': device, connectivity, data, application, and development. He argues that hardware companies should start with their chip and OS choice to leverage vendor support, rather than building proprietary infrastructure or locking themselves into a single cloud provider like AWS. Beri highlights the importance of using open standards and modular design to avoid vendor lock-in and reduce the burden of device management, OTA updates, and telemetry.

    Q&A with Rob Tiffany Part 2: Digital Twins, Edge Vs Cloud Computing & Industrial IoT

    Rob Tiffany, Managing Director at Digital Insights, and Bill Flaherty, Director of Hardware Engineering at Very, discuss industrial IoT strategies with host Ryan Prosser. They explain how digital twins allow risk-averse organizations to simulate processes and de-risk changes without physical intervention, while emphasizing the need for partners who understand end-to-end systems. The conversation contrasts edge versus cloud computing, arguing that edge compute is only justified for low-latency or privacy-critical tasks, and explores how increased computational power enables greater mission agility and autonomy in modern space exploration compared to the Apollo era.
