Where Should Your Model Live? A Framework for Tiering Computer Vision Deployments
Where should a computer vision model actually run - on-device, near the edge, or in the cloud? It's a decision that looks simple until requirements like latency, cost, connectivity, and update cadence start pulling in different directions, often revealing themselves only after deployment.
Drawing on hands-on experience developing and deploying CV models across Hailo, Nvidia, Qualcomm and AWS platforms, this talk introduces a practical framework for tiering computer vision deployments based on real project requirements and constraints. Discussion will include what changes at each tier - from development to deployment to monitoring and update strategy - with relevant industry examples.
Attendees will leave with a set of questions or a framework they can use to place their own CV projects into the right tier.
