💡 Prototype in action: CATER seamlessly integrates with Apache Ozone, using modular APIs for intelligent node selection. This ensures flexibility across diverse edge environments like smart factories and hospitals. 

🔍 Optimizing edge storage isn’t just about speed — it’s about sustainability. Our CATER framework strikes the balance between optimal performance and real-world deployment, reducing costly data movement while improving efficiency.  

📊 Did you know? CATER reduces active node usage by 23% compared to default Apache Ozone, while still meeting 100% of application constraints. This means less energy consumption ⚡ and a smaller environmental footprint 🌍.

During August, CLEVER highlighted major advances in edge computing, AI, photonics, and sustainable technologies:✅ Quantum-Ready Edge Security – CLEVER deployed a fully Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC)-protected network stack on NVIDIA BlueField-2 DPUs, preparing infrastructure for the quantum era.✅ Photonic AI for Real-Time Threat Mitigation – Photonic CNNs detect cyberattacks like DoS Hulk attacks in real-time, offering…

🚀 Launching September with CLEVER innovations! CATER, our policy-based data placement framework, is transforming how data flows across the edge-cloud continuum. With GDPR compliance, privacy safeguards, and energy efficiency at its core, CATER is paving the way for sustainable edge intelligence.🔗 Learn more: https://lnkd.in/dYPRnGsB
