Edge computing and IoT - enabling technologies for Industry 4.0 - a chat with Elvira Wallis

Send me a messageSAP recently produced a fascinating new whitepaper (seriously!) on enabling technologies for Industry 4.0 (called SAP Enabling Technologies for Industry 4.Now). Given the very close alignment between Industry 4.0 and the digitisation of Supply Chain, I thought I'd invite someone on the podcast to talk about this.I reached out to my old friend and colleague Elvira Wallis (@ElviraWallis on Twitter), Global Head of IoT at SAP, to ask her to come on the podcast, and she graciously agreed. We had a great chat about the enabling technologies (chiefly IoT and Edge Computing), trains, and swimming!!!We had fun chatting about this. I hope you enjoy it too.If you have any comments/suggestions or questions for the podcast - feel free to leave me a voice message over on my SpeakPipe page or just send it to me as a direct message on Twitter/LinkedIn.
