It was the first time that Gartner published The Market Guide for Edge Computing (“Market Guide”). It is Gartner’s most important report for the edge computing sector. It comprehensively evaluates and studies global edge computing manufacturers from dimensions such as market definition, market direction, and market analysis. By selecting world-leading representative vendors, it provides important references and benchmarks for global users to choose their edge computing solutions.

The Market Guide notes that edge computing is pushing a variety of vendors into a new marketplace. This emerging market is still developing and currently consists of several overlapping submarkets in software, hardware and services, such as edge computing server solutions, edge management and orchestration, IoT platforms, edge data management, edge analytics and machine learning, edge communications infrastructure, data center and CDN edge services, and edge vertical industry solutions.

The Market Guide also divides the edge computing market into three phases. In Phase 1, edge computing solutions tend to be part of an enterprise’s digital transformation (for example, Industry 4.0 in manufacturing, or retail stores of the future) with highly customized user demands. In Phase 2, the edge computing demands continuously develop with the deepening of industrial demands, driving vertically oriented edge computing suites and packages. In Phase 3, many technology requirements for edge computing will span different vertical industries. For example, requirements within enterprises will span from storefront smart retail scenarios to factory AI quality inspection scenarios and smart oil wells, requiring vendors to leverage horizontal solutions. Gartner points out that those forward-thinking enterprises are focused on edge computing strategies and architectures to respond to the challenges vendors will face regarding scalability across verticals. Establishing relevant standards and ecosystem cooperation will facilitate the market’s maturity.

Inspur Information is the world’s leading provider of computing infrastructure. Facing the complex and diverse business demands of edge computing users, it leads the market by participating in the formulation of operator-oriented design standards for edge servers. Not long ago, Inspur Information released its edge computing optional module (ECOM) that satisfies manufacturing, transportation and other diversified and specialized demands, to constantly push the maturity of edge computing products and solutions.

EIS800 is a micro edge server based on the ECOM standard. It can be adjusted into different forms, such as indoor, outdoor and micro-center nodes for multiple scenarios as well as complex and demanding environments. Such flexible scalability is ideal for solving the diverse requirements encountered across different vertical industries. For example, in retail stores, the indoor node of the micro edge server has a compact size and can effectively help manage real-time sales data. An outdoor node with its IP65-rated enclosure can operate under an environment temperature of -40°C to +70°C (-40°F to +158°F). It can also operate stably in outdoors smart traffic intersections. A micro-center node supports multiple I/O expansion options and flexible deployment. It can either be deployed at a desktop-level micro-center by stacking multiple nodes or be deployed at a cabinet-level micro-center by installing two connected nodes, providing support for the more complex scenarios of managing smart factories.

In addition, Inspur Information has developed its software hardware-integrated edge solutions covering edge servers, operating systems, and micro-module data centers, and is constantly improving its vertical industry partnerships and ecosystem. Currently, the edge computing products and solutions developed by Inspur Information and its partners have been widely applied in manufacturing, energy, transportation and other industrial scenarios. Notable projects include the intelligent factory of a global bearing giant, the largest offshore wind farm in Asia, and implementation of an intelligent parking lot with the Tokyo Institute of Technology.
