Language: en
Type: Talk

Abstract: Infarm is a VaaS, Vegetables as a Service,  and whether you believe it or not, our business is in-house farming at scale.

We design and build our farms, grow vegetables and sell them, and the backbone of our infrastructure is based on Python.

More than 10 million observations recorded from our farms, rapidly increasing given our expansion to new markets, feed our farm management system that allows the operators, plant scientists, and supervisors to monitor each farm in real-time.

During this talk I will introduce our IoT infrastructure, how we use Python and how we plan to improve the capabilities of our farms by adding edge machine learning.
