Commercial Feasibility Tool CEI-LING® CEI – Leadership, Innovation, Navigation, Growth

This document has been prepared as part of WP4 of the UNLOCK-CEI project that aims to unlock the potential for accelerating the deployment of the Cloud-Edge-IoT (CEI) computing continuum… focusing on the demand side drivers and challenges and the technology-driven innovations and business opportunities driving demand value chains. Its primary objective is establishing a comprehensive self-assessment framework, CEI-LING®, tailored for technology developers, focusing on those working in the Meta-Operating Systems for NextGeneration IoT and Edge Computing Cluster. The CEI-ING® framework facilitates an in-depth evaluation of their technological innovations’ applicability, value chains, and key market opportunities. More expansively, it is a foundational interface between demand and supply stakeholders, offering a platform to discern how and where edge and metaOS solutions can generate tangible business value. While the primary audience for this document is developers specializing in edge and metaOS technologies, its scope extends to decision-makers across the industry who are considering investments in edge solutions.

Technology scoping paper

This deliverable is part of the UNLOCK-CEI project Work Package 4: Tech Developer Engagement, precisely Task 4.1: Portfolio Supply Coordination. The deliverable aims to provide an overview of the European Cloud-Edge-IoT continuum initiative and the project portfolio of Meta-Operating Systems for the Next Generation IoT and Edge Computing Cluster. To provide context for future development, this publication analyses existing technologies and previous initiatives that serve as a base for the EUCEI initiative. Outlining the framework for CEI (Cloud-Edge-IoT), the technologies’ categories that address the main challenges and solutions will be presented. The sectorial and market challenges are the basis for market needs used throughout the UNLOCK-CEI project. Lastly, Understanding the current project cluster is the first essential step towards connecting the supply and demand sides of the continuum and market-ready technology developments that will benefit the ecosystem. The deliverable provides a table of use cases from the project portfolio to show the possible solutions to industry-related challenges. The deliverable is the starting point for creating the interface between demand and supply actors and successfully delivering valued projects.

Mapping Cloud-Edge-IoT opportunities and challenges in Europe

While current data processing predominantly occurs in centralized facilities, with a minor portion handled by smart objects, a shift is anticipated, with a surge in data originating from smart devices. This evolution necessitates reconfiguring the infrastructure, emphasizing computing capabilities at the cloud’s “edge” closer to data sources. This change symbolizes merging cloud, edge, and IoT technologies into a unified network infrastructure – a Computing Continuum – poised to redefine tech interactions, offering novel prospects across diverse sectors. The computing continuum is emerging as a cornerstone of tech advancement in the contemporary digital era. This paper explores the computing continuum in-depth, highlighting its potential, practical implications, and the adjustments required to tackle existing challenges. It emphasizes the continuum’s real-world applications, market trends, and significance in shaping Europe’s tech future.

Advancing Towards the Cloud, Edge and IoT Continuum: Insights and Impacts

Advancing towards the Cloud, Edge, and IoT Continuum: Insights and Impacts” was an online event organized by UNLOCK-CEI as part of the EUCloudEdgeIoT (EUCEI) initiative. EUCEI is a collaborative effort to foster advancements in cloud, edge computing, and the Internet of Things (IoT) technologies within the European Union. This initiative is coordinated by UNLOCK-CEI and Open Continuum projects, respectively, focused on the demand and supply sides of the computing continuum. The initiative brings together experts, industry leaders, and researchers to drive innovation and explore the potential of these emerging fields.
