CHALLENGE + IMPACT

AI-powered apps at the edge need speed and reliability

Mobile and IoT apps that rely only on the cloud for data and AI processing are dependent on the internet, when it slows or stops, so do the apps that use it, frustrating users and costing you downtime.

AI cannot respond in real time

GenAI at the edge requires lightweight, secure, realtime data to engage users in context.

Apps stop working without internet

Going into an elevator, subway, or tunnel shouldn’t adversely affect the app user's experience in any way.

App data does not stay in sync

Distributed apps must ensure that data is always correct, always in sync, and never stale.

The internet hampers app speed and reliability

`Personalized engagement starts with a fast reliable experience, but edge apps that depend 100% on data and AI processing in the cloud suffer when the internet is slow or unavailable..

  • Latency and crashes are main reasons users abandon apps
  • Internet dead zones hinder apps that depend on the cloud
  • Downtime erodes revenue and user confidence
