Microsoft HoloLens 2: a new version of the leading mixed reality headset has
been revealed, this time featuring a more comfortable design and improved optics
that track where your eyes are looking for a more immersive, reactive, augmented
reality experience.
Huawei Mate X: the most extravagant phone of the show? We'd say so. Not
only does Huawei's crazy flagship have 5G connectivity, but it also comes in the
shape of a mad folding design.
LG DualScreen: speaking of mad, LG has revealed a crazy accessory for its
new LG V50 ThinQ handset – a clip on clamshell case that also doubles up as an
additional, full-sized screen for the phone.
Nokia 9 PureView: we cant get enough of innovation in the smartphone camera
space, and the Nokia 9 PureView, with its insane five lens camera array, shows
plenty of potential.
Sony Xperia 1: forget foldable phones – Sony thinks the future of the mobile display
is with 21:9 ratio screens. Ultralong, they're well suited to watching films, but the jury is
out on whether or not it's a useful set up for everyday use. Along with the flagship
Xperia 1, Sony has revealed a whole range of 21:9 phones at MWC 2019.

On 26Feb2019
In ~3+ months of first
major code commit
Goal :
An Open Source , generic edge cloud computing framework, extending the native containerized application orchestration
based on Kubernetes. Also build edge cloud computing framework exploiting the existing competent CNCF projects
ecosystem.
Target Features:
• Kubernetes based node, application, cluster and device management
• Offline/Disconnected Mode Working (Edge is not connected to cloud)
• Container based Microservice platform
• Provide open edge cloud computing infrastructure including network, compute, storage
and data synchronization (edge-cloud, edge-edge)
• Data Management, Data Analytics Framework
• Optimized and generic communication interface (Edge-Edge, Edge-Cloud)
• Cloud vendor agnostic deployment and execution
• Edge optimized end to end security service
• Easy Device Management with SDK, Adapters and multiprotocol support.
• Ability to run low resource heterogeneous hardware (ARM, x86
• Simplify the application development and deployment (SDK)
KubeEdge is fully open (including Cloud Core), cross platform, scalable, portable on heterogeneous edge hardware and
resource optimized edge computing platform based on Kubernetes

IoT – Edge Vendors coming together….
Litmus Automation, Clearblade, Bosch IoT Suite, Software AG Cumulocity (Software AG has
partnered with Dell and Eurotech)
Eurotech offers Everywhere Software Framework, based on Eclipse Kura
Foghorn and Swim specialize in offering machine learning and analytics at the edge
ADLINK develops Vortex Edge and Vortex DDS
Zededaand Edgeworx are bringing virtualization technology and container technology to edge devices.
Dell and Rigado have IoT gateways that run Ubuntu Core allowing for remote management and
deployment of software running on their gateway devices.

Does the Edge will eat the Cloud?
Several overlapping trends are colliding:
(1) cloud computing, centralizing IT for massive economies of scale and agile
provisioning, volatility and growth,
(2) the Internet of Things (IoT), where things are becoming connected and sending
reams of data,
(3) machine learning, taking all of that data and improving processing and
predictions,
(4) Augmented and Mixed Reality (along with Virtual Reality), where people can
interact with other people and things both in physical and virtual worlds, and
(5) Digital Business and the Digital World, where connections between things and
people are pushing us to more and more real-time interactions and decisions.
