Thoughts on the Embedded Market
|
|
|
Embedded computing is a great business to be in, because the world is becoming increasingly data-centric and everyone is pushing for real time access to critical data. That applies to almost every industry – manufacturing, telecommunications, the military and so on - giving our business very broad scope: there’s an almost endless array of problems looking for the solutions we can help provide. That accelerating need for real time access to data means that the embedded computing business is a very dynamic one, one in which technology is moving as rapidly as it’s moving anywhere – and our role is to bring that technology to market, enabling our customers to bring more capability to their applications. That’s an exciting – and challenging – position to be in. Best of all, we have a large, global, and talented engineering team, and we work with great partners, and they’re all focused on understanding what those technologies can do, turning them into solutions that businesses around the world can leverage.
