Abstract
In one embodiment, an apparatus comprises a network interface and a processor. The processor is to: receive, via the network interface, a plurality of data streams to be routed over a network, wherein the plurality of data streams correspond to sensor data captured by a plurality of sensors; identify, from the plurality of data streams, a set of related data streams that are contextually related; identify a convergence function to be performed on the set of related data streams, wherein the convergence function is for transforming the set of related data streams into a converged data stream that is smaller in size than the set of related data streams; perform the convergence function to transform the set of related data streams into the converged data stream; and route, via the network interface, the converged data stream to one or more corresponding destinations over the network.
