Book Description
Edge computing holds vast potential to revolutionize industries, yet its implementation poses unique challenges. Written by industry veterans Rob High and Sanjeev Gupta, this comprehensive guide bridges the gap between theory and practice. Distilling expertise from their combined decades of experience in edge computing and hybrid cloud mesh solutions, this book equips software developers and DevOps teams with the knowledge and skills needed to deploy edge solutions at scale in production environments. It also explores foundational standards and introduces key factors that may impede the scaling of edge solutions.
While edge computing draws from the successes of cloud computing, crucial distinctions separate the two. High and Gupta elucidate these distinctions, helping you grasp the nuanced dynamics of edge-computing ecosystems. With a focus on leveraging Open Horizon to overcome pitfalls and optimize performance, this book will help you confidently navigate the intricacies of constructing and deploying resilient edge solutions in real-world production settings.
By the end of this book, you’ll have acquired a deep understanding of essential success factors for building and deploying robust edge solutions in real-world production settings, leveraging Open Horizon for scalable edge deployments.

About the Author
Robert High retired in 2023, after 42 years at IBM. He is currently doing independent freelancing. Prior to his retirement, Rob was an IBM fellow, Vice President, and Chief Technology Officer (CTO) for IBM's Edge Computing and Networking business. He had architecture and technical strategy responsibility for offerings that will enable a new generation of edge computing, where work is placed close to where data is produced, and actions are performed, and enterprise networking for connecting edge locations. Prior to that assignment, he was the CTO for IBM Watson, responsible for setting the technical strategy and vision for IBM's leadership in AI computing. High is recognized as a global technical leader, author, and evangelist, and was named an IBM Fellow in 2008 for his pioneering work in the field of SOA and his leadership on WebSphere.
Sanjeev Gupta, currently edge computing lead for IBM's Software Networking division, commands a holistic view of why edge computing is needed and how a practical scalable edge solution can be put together with modern container technologies. Having spent nearly four decades in diverse industries ranging from semiconductor, networking, application business process development and automation, and his own multiple start-ups for mobile and IoT applications, he understands the cycle of the ever-evolving technological landscape. He has always been an engineer focused on turning hype into reality. Along the way, he has been encouraged by many colleagues and friends – in particular, Glen Darling, Joe Pearson, Dave Booz, and Carl Girouard, who entrusted him to make significant contributions to the Open Horizon edge computing platform and related networking products.
