Topic 1a - You’re both coming off of successful companies that you built or grew (Simon Crosby - Bromium, Zen Source), (Simon Aspinall, Virtustream). What motivated you to get involved in both the AI and Edge Computing space? Topic 2 - Let’s start with the basics. There’s lots of data happening at the edge. This means there is lots of potential value at the edge. But the computing and network at the edge is different than the centralized cloud. Walk us through how to extract that potential value? Topic 3 - SWIM’s technology is called EDX. How does EDX get deployed, and what needs to live around it to make it valuable to companies. Are there edge and cloud components? Topic 4 - We were learning about EDX and came across the concept called “digital twins”. What does this mean and what does it do? Topic 5 - What are some of the initial use-cases that you’re finding interesting in EDX? Feedback? Email: show at thecloudcast dot net Twitter: @thecloudcastnet and @ServerlessCast
