You can’t predict the future, but you can build the fitness to respond to it. The advantage isn’t prediction. It’s how fast your leadership team can notice, anticipate, and respond to change. Hence #MindCandy — an information stream to help you and your team think about what’s next.
Living on the Edge: Rethinking Event-Driven Architecture for Distributed Intelligence
Intelligence is leaving the building. Devices, sensors, robots, retail systems, industrial equipment — they’re all generating enormous volumes of data far from your data centre. Edge computing places processing power where the data actually originates. Closer to the customer. Closer to the problem. Closer to the decision.
This isn’t a hardware trend. It’s an architectural shift in how organisations think and act. When intelligence distributes, so does authority. The organisations that thrive won’t be the ones with the best central brain. They’ll be the ones whose edges can think for themselves.
Living on the Edge: Rethinking Event-Driven Architecture for Distributed Intelligence
If intelligence is moving to the edge — closer to where decisions actually happen — why is your organisation still routing every decision back to the centre?
