Professional services outfit Ernst & Young (EY) is to open an edge technologies lab (EY Edge Technologies Lab) in London with US-based Dell Technologies to demonstrate and develop edge-based “ecosystem technologies” to help enterprises with digital transformation. The venue will focus on industry-specific use cases and prototypes, said EY. A statement talked generally about the “value of data” and “real-time insights”, but was quick to mention generative AI, among all the different edge-based systems and applications to support fancy data-driven enterprise analytics.

It also talked about the importance of local edge-based computing systems, versus central cloud ones, for purposes of speed, performance, security, reliability, and resilience. EY will use Dell’s NativeEdge operations software platform, plus various edge computing hardware (gateways, servers, desktops) from the firm. It cited Microsoft, PTC, GE Digital, Snowflake, among others, as collaborators on the project, also. The AI angle centres on the London firm’s own AI hub (called EY.ai), presented as a “unifying platform” to make business processes smarter and AI simpler.
