Abstract
Computer-implemented processes and systems described herein are directed to reducing volumes of data sent from edge devices to a data center. Each edge device runs an agent that collects event information generated by event sources of the edge device in a runtime interval. Each agent reduces the event information to relevant event information at the edge device in accordance with instructions received from a controller server of the data center. The relevant event information contains less information than the event information. Each agent forwards the relevant event information over the internet to external services executed at the data center, where the relevant event information is stored in a data storage device of the data center.
