http://predixtransform.com The edge is where the Industrial Internet starts (and ends). Understand the roles Predix Machine and Connectivity play for your app architecture. Then use the essential tool kits to build your own edge-connected apps. We'll cover edge management (enrollment and security), edge analytics, and data ingestion (e.g., HTTP and MQTT).
