Commercialization

Complement existing working groups by mapping commercial tools and solutions to applicable use cases across the edge continuum.

Charter & Goals

Charter: complement existing working groups by mapping commercial tools and solutions to applicable use cases across the edge continuum. 

Key work to include:

  • Create an EDGE AI taxonomy spanning devices to regional data centers. We will leverage the LF Edge taxonomy while adapting it to the specific area of edge AI.
  • Map the commercial value chain to the taxonomy 
  • Identify key solution elements in the infrastructure (e.g. hardware, OS/runtimes, orchestration, security) and application (e.g. model training, ML Ops, data normalization, cloud connections) planes
  • Establish architectural best practices – e.g. multi-cloud strategy, cybersecurity
  • Map applicability of industry tools across the continuum based on context.  Note: not specific companies, rather solutions/capabilities.  Commercial companies can subsequently use the output to showcase where/how they plug into the value chain.
  • Establish key use cases by industry and opportunities/applicability across the continuum
  • E.g. use cases on a sensor vs a vehicle/drone vs. a small server cluster POP on a city block
  • Related considerations for each, which tool sets/capabilities are critical, etc.
  • Explore business models and monetization methods

Stay Tuned for the Edge AI Taxonomy Paper!

The goal of the EDGE AI FOUNDATION is to build awareness and share best practices for implementing Edge AI solutions. The first deliverable for the community’s recently-formed Commercialization Working Group is a white paper that breaks down a comprehensive taxonomy for the Edge AI continuum, key considerations for real-world implementation,
