Abstract

Embodiments include a server system including logic of an edge computing device. A network includes a cloud platform able to receive utilization change events from a utilization module, and execution of the program logic results in process steps of a method that include transmitting a plurality of attributes from the cloud platform to the at least one edge computing device, where the plurality of attributes can be associated with a device of a distributed environment coupled to the network. Another step includes receiving from the utilization module, by the edge computing device, current utilization data of the device, and a further step includes performing a comparison based on a set of rules or mappings of the attributes, by the edge computing device, of the current utilization data. Finally, based on the comparison, the method includes sending, by the edge computing device, an update to a human-machine-interface module.
