Raleigh, NC - June 17, 2021 — EDJX, the pioneer in distributed cloud services at the edge, today announced it will join Autonomy Institute and Edgevana to present critical IoT and edge computing partnership use cases at the IoT Evolution Expo conference in Miami Florida, to be held June 22-25, 2021. The EDJX-Autonomy Institute Partnership Use Case panel is scheduled for Thursday, June 24, 3:00pm - 3:45pm EDT.

Autonomy Institute, a cooperative research consortium focused on advancing and accelerating Autonomy and AI at the edge, recently announced, in partnership with EDJX, plans to launch the Public Infrastructure Network Node (PINN) Pilot in Austin, Texas. Autonomy Institute Launches Intelligent Infrastructure Pilot with Texas Military Department to Enable Autonomous Vehicles, Smart Cities, and Connected Things. Edgevana, an intuitive online B2B marketplace platform that facilitates optimized transactions between data center operators, co-location providers, network providers, and end-user customers, will discuss partnership and customer engagement in the context of an infrastructure rethink and the vast returns on edge computing.

The PINN is the first unified open standard to incorporate 5G wireless, Edge Computing, Radar, Lidar, Enhanced GPS, and Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) as a single unified system. Combining edge computing and IoT to unlock autonomous and intelligent applications. EDJX is aligned with Autonomy Institute as a key technology partner to deliver solutions at the edge for PINN pilot users, including Transportation and Defense customers. PINNs are designed to rapidly deliver a multitude of advanced edge sensors, communication protocols and computing capabilities urgently needed to support autonomy and IoT to empower cities into the future. The first PINNs are set to go live in summer 2021.

EDJX has solved the challenges and complexities of low latency, high performance edge apps at planet scale by delivering multi-tenant cloud services at the far edge of any network, where and when they are needed by the developer ecosystem. The PINN infrastructure, enabled by the EDJX platform, will reduce latency for developer ecosystems by more than 10x. This new capability will power the next wave of applications such as predictive analytics, autonomous machines, augmented reality, and artificial intelligence, all of which will feature prominently on the path to Vision Zero, whose network is committed to eliminating all traffic fatalities and severe injuries, while increasing safety, healthy and equitable mobility for all.

Critical digital infrastructure needed to enable autonomy, autonomous vehicles, the future of smart cities and connected things holds short and long term implications for Miami as one of the first major US cities to adopt autonomous driving pilot projects.

US city planning officials and IoT developers, with an application or solution that should leverage the PINN, can apply to take part in the limited PINN Beta program here.

Register here to attend this year's IoT Evolution Expo in person, with the EDJX-Autonomy Institute Partnership Use Case panel Thursday, June 24. Also visit EDJX at Miami Convention Center Expo Hall D Booth #439 in the conference exhibition hall.

About Edgevana
Edgevana is an intuitive online B2B marketplace platform that facilitates optimized transactions between data center operators, colocation providers, network providers, and end-user customers. Founders Mark Thiele and Subhan Jahromi launched Edgevana in 2019 with the express intent of disrupting the existing processes for selling and buying colocation and data center services. Edgevana's member data centers are the backbone of IT delivery globally. Individually they represent a city, region, or country, but as a global resource, they are often invisible to the modern buyer. Federating the access to these facilities and delivering competitive differentiation in new, more cost-effective services enables Edgevana to make each location part of a greater whole, delivering value to the owner and global buyers. For our customers who might need a global partner in the data center space, whether for transformation, market-entry, or edge computing, Edgevana is making adaptations daily to improve the identification, contracting, procurement, and deployment easier.
