Abstract:
1. A method for providing intelligence at the edge using one or more intelligent cellular communications gateway devices, the method comprising: receiving via a first network, by a remote computer server, a customized application from a user; transmitting, by the remote computer server, the customized application to the one or more intelligent cellular communications gateway devices; automatically installing the customized application; automatically configuring the customized application; receiving, by the one or more intelligent cellular communications gateway devices, local information from a device that is local relative to the one or more intelligent cellular communications gateway devices; analyzing, by the one or more intelligent cellular communications gateway devices, the local information; controlling, by the one or more intelligent cellular communications gateway devices, the device that is local relative to the one or more intelligent cellular communications gateway devices, based on the analyzed local information; filtering, by the one or more intelligent cellular communications gateway devices, the local information; and transmitting via a cellular network, by the one or more intelligent cellular communications gateway devices, the filtered local information, to the remote computer server, wherein the filtered local information includes a portion of the local information that is less than a total amount of the local information received, thereby conserving bandwidth of the cellular network; wherein: receiving the local information from the device that is local relative to the one or more intelligent cellular communications gateway devices further includes receiving, by the one or more intelligent cellular communications gateway devices, at least one of first local information from a device situated within an oil field or second local information from a device situated within a power grid; analyzing the local information further includes analyzing, by the one or more intelligent cellular communications gateway devices, the at least one of the first local information from the device situated within the oil field or the second local information from the device situated within the power grid; controlling the device that is local relative to the one or more intelligent cellular communications gateway devices further includes controlling, by the one or more intelligent cellular communications gateway devices, at least one of the device situated within the oil field or the device situated within the power grid based on at least one of the analyzed first local information or the analyzed second local information, respectively; filtering the local information further includes filtering, by the one or more intelligent cellular communications gateway devices, the at least one of the first local information or the second location information; and transmitting the filtered local information further includes transmitting via the cellular network, by the one or more intelligent cellular communications gateway devices, the at least one of the first filtered local information or the second filtered location information, wherein the first filtered local information includes a portion of the first local information that is less than a total amount of the first local information received, and wherein the second filtered local information includes a portion of the second local information that is less than a total amount of the second local information received, thereby conserving bandwidth of the cellular network.
