mimik Collaborates with IBM to Make Edge Computing More Accessible for Customers
21 Décembre 2020 - 01:00PM
mimik technology, Inc, a pioneering hybrid edge cloud company,
today announced it is collaborating with IBM (NYSE: IBM) to
build AI-enabled collaborative workflow solutions designed to help
accelerate automation and digital transformation across
manufacturing, retail, IoT and healthcare. mimik’s hybrid edgeCloud
platform transforms cloud applications from a fixed client-server
architecture – where server functionality is limited to servers in
data centers and gateways – to a fully distributed architecture,
enabling "client" devices to act as servers. Through this
relationship, mimik intends to extend IBM Edge Application
Manager’s management of IoT and edge devices, and support for edge
clusters by enabling the deployment of containerized workloads to
mobile devices running on iOS, Android, QNX and Windows.
We are amid a transition from mobile internet to a hyper
connected internet, with a projected 24.1 billion connected devices
by 2030 and millions of applications and systems connecting and
communicating with each other across domains driven by data and
artificial intelligence. Enterprise cloud transformation, IoT and
5G trends have been driving the proliferation of smart devices at
the edge, and as a result, internet bandwidth and computing
resources in centralized data centers are straining to manage the
amount of new data coming from connected devices at the edge of the
network. At the same time, client applications are becoming more
complex and difficult to develop, update and maintain. To help
address these challenges, mimik will bring its hybrid edgeCloud
platform together with IBM’s Edge Application Manager, which runs
on Red Hat OpenShift, to enable devices with computing resources,
such as PCs, smartphones, routers, game consoles, and IoT gateways
and FreeRTOS sensors, as well as the broad spectrum of Linux-based
edge devices and clusters, to have containerized computing
capabilities at the edge.
“We are excited to work with IBM and to leverage its expertise
in hybrid cloud computing and software delivery solutions like IBM
Edge Application Manager,” said Fay Arjomandi, Founder, President
& CEO, mimik. “Our collaboration will help customers across
industries to architect transformative solutions that combine
mimik’s edge cloud technology with IBM’s cloud and AI
infrastructure to address the industry’s demand for digital
transformation.”
mimik’s hybrid edge cloud platform enables heterogenous devices,
applications and processes with cloud serverless capability
to autonomously communicate in small local
clusters regardless of operating systems and
networks. The aim is for IBM Edge Application Manager to help
manage these local clusters globally and create hyper connected
‘super clusters’ that can communicate directly or through servers
and gateways regardless of hardware, operating system and
networks.
“We look forward to welcoming mimik into the fold of the IBM
Edge Ecosystem,” said Evaristus Mainsah, GM of Cloud, Cloud Pak,
and Edge Ecosystem, IBM. “Together we plan to build and deploy
clustered edge applications that can run on iOS, Android and other
mobile devices as an integral extension of the enterprise hybrid
cloud platform, unlocking natural scalability and speed in a cost
effective, open and secured way.”
mimik is part of IBM’s edge ecosystem, an initiative to help
equipment manufacturers, networking, IT & software providers
implement open standards-based cloud-native solutions that can
autonomously manage edge applications at scale. IBM’s ecosystem of
partners fuels hybrid cloud environments by helping clients manage
and modernize workloads from bare-metal to multi-cloud and
everything in between with Red Hat OpenShift, the industry's
leading enterprise Kubernetes platform.

About mimik Technology
mimik has pioneered Hybrid Edge Cloud computing to
enable any computing device to act as a cloud server to help app
developers unlock the next generation of apps for the
hyper-connected world. The platform includes a run-time engine
for developers to develop and host microservices on all kinds of
end user devices such as smart phones, smart IoT devices and
AI-based sensors. The engine is agnostic to OS, device, networks
and public/private cloud. It is non-proprietary and works with
existing standard development tools and language. mimik also
provides ready to deploy application domain SaaS (cloud and/or
edge) for a wide range of industry verticals including fintech.
mimik platform enables an edge-in versus a cloud-out
approach to build applications faster and drastically reduce
infrastructure cost, minimize latency and improve security and data
privacy, and enable direct app-to-app communication via the
standard RESTful API first and serverless microservice
driven architecture.
