Summary: Edge Computing: In this special 'research' edition we take a deep dive into the world of Edge Computing - what it is, why it's so important, and how is it enabling the rise of technologies such as IoT and AI, and why it just might upend the market for cloud services! Plus our Fast Five: The rise and fall of Bitcoin and crypto currencies; an update on HPE's Discover event; Amazon steps into the Blockchain; Microsoft matches Apple's valuation; and the latest on the Commercial Lunar Payload System (to the Moon!).
