Overview
Processing at the edge
Today’s businesses generate a huge amount of data. Typically, enterprises need to tap into insights from such data to improve operations and make quick real-time decisions. By automating operations and improving customer experience they can improve operational efficiencies. Building a strong digital core with 5G, Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Language (ML), eXtended Reality (XR), and the Internet of Things (IoT) is the key to success.
TCS’ edge computing services help enterprises reduce latency in IT operations, minimize data vulnerabilities from cyber-attacks, and drive performance at optimal levels. This helps in improving application performance and enriching user experience as edge solutions take both applications and data closer to the user. For example, content delivery by digital media and entertainment houses requires the development of solutions with low latency capabilities.
Solution
Unlock next-gen performance
Deploy an end-to-end strategy focused on achieving scale, security, and connectivity by leveraging cognitive computing, and autonomous operations.
TCS’ edge computing services are powered by the following capabilities:
Expert advisory: Helps discover edge computing use cases that can boost business performance. We bring our contextual expertise to create edge strategies, business cases, and infrastructure choices for clients’ edge transformation. For a provider of automation solutions for smart buildings based in Japan, TCS helped to make choices of infrastructure and features required for a centralized orchestration platform to manage their remote BMS systems. TCS created POC of remote onboarding, simultaneous application deployment, and monitoring for two of their remote sites using TCS’ edge studio.
Services: Design, build, deploy, and manage services around edge applications, networking, and security with the following:
- Edge SecOps - Remote security operations and centralized monitoring
- Cognitive Edge - Analytics models optimized for the edge and constrained devices
- Converge Edge - End-to-end edge infrastructure enablement from IoT edge to the enterprise edge
Platform (Platform as a Service Edge): We help customers in designing, architecting, and building scalable edge platforms for their end customers. We collaborate with our partners to choose the right technology and validate designs and roadmap features for the platform. This integrated management platform enables edge orchestration, security, and provisioning.
Industry solutions: Provides edge-enabled industry solutions such as industrial worker safety, oil rig predictive maintenance, plant manufacturing quality inspection, and banking branch-in-a-box. We collaborate with cross-functional industry and technology teams to bring solutions like TCS Retail Omni-store products on edge for enhancement of the in-store experience. Similarly, we provide smart factory solutions such as cognitive quality assurance on the factory edge for improving productivity.
TCS Cognix™ for edge carries a vast collection of ‘value builders’ – pre-built, configurable, reusable digital solutions that synergize multiple digital levers to improve KPIs. These solutions are easy to deploy, and at the same time modular and scalable to address the varying needs of the organization. The suite’s value builders include an edge orchestrator, edge command center, and edge manager.
