Google Forays Into Edge Computing With Cloud IoT Edge And TPU
Tensor Processing Unit (TPU), an application specific integrated circuit, designed by Google for accelerating machine learning workloads, is going to be available at the edge. These tailor-made chips complement Cloud TPUs by inferencing machine learning models deployed at the edge. Google has also announced Cloud IoT Edge, an edge computing platform that extends Google Cloud’s data processing and machine learning to edge devices.
