Edge computing takes place close to the data source to reduce network stress and improve latency. GPUs are an ideal compute engine for edge computing because they are programmable and deliver phenomenal performance per dollar. However, the complexity associated with managing a fleet of edge devices can erode the GPU’s favorable economics. In 2019, NVIDIA…
