I korthet
Edge inference brings ML model execution closer to users and devices, reducing latency and bandwidth. Deploy ONNX, TensorFlow Lite, or WASM models to edge. Used by mobile, IoT, and real-time application teams. Salary: mid 140-160k. Learn in 4-6 weeks. Complements ML Fundamentals and DevOps.
Vad är Inference Edge Compute
Edge inference is executing machine learning models on edge devices or servers close to users, not in cloud data centers. This includes smartphones, IoT devices, Cloudflare Workers, and regional servers. Key technologies: ONNX (model format), TensorFlow Lite (mobile), WebAssembly (browser), and specialized runtimes.

❓ Vanliga frågor
When should I use edge inference?
When latency is critical (real-time interaction), offline support (mobile), or privacy matters (no data to servers).
What models can I deploy to edge?
Small to medium models (< 1GB) work well. LLMs are emerging on edge via quantization and pruning.
Is edge inference slower?
Depends on hardware. Edge inference is faster for latency (no network), but throughput is lower.
Can I use edge inference for real-time?
Yes, that's the primary use case, computer vision, speech recognition, text input, gesture recognition on devices.
What about accuracy?
Quantized models lose 1–5% accuracy; pruned models trade accuracy for speed. Test on your workload.
