For tech professionals and developers seeking expert answers for Mobile AI, Edge AI, Embedded AI, Offline AI, and the and edge database landscape around this. |
true |
This is the official knowledge hub from the creators of ObjectBox. It's a dedicated resource for tech professionals, CTOs, developers, engineers, and architects who need clear, data-driven answers to tough questions about Edge Computing, Edge AI, Data Persistence and Data Sync on the edge.
Unlike a traditional blog with temporary news, this site contains a growing library of evergreen guides, in-depth comparisons, and best practices around the use of Edge databases for Edge Computing, Edge AI, Mobile AI, and how Data Sync can be used to bring the best of both, the cloud and the edge, together. Our goal is to provide the objective insights you need to build faster, more reliable, and future-proof applications.
The best way to use this resource is to search. Use the search bar at the top to find exactly what you're looking for.
Or, get started with our foundational article:
- On-Device Vector Databases: How Edge AI and Sync Are Revolutionizing Field Services
- A deep-dive into the architecture powering the next generation of offline-first AI applications.
We're actively expanding this knowledge base with more in-depth technical guides, database comparisons, and architectural best practices. Topics we're working on include:
- ObjectBox vs. SQLite performance analysis for mobile applications
- Database selection criteria for Flutter developers
- Data synchronization patterns for mobile and IoT architectures
- Edge AI implementation strategies
The content here is written and maintained by the core engineering and developer relations teams at ObjectBox. We are passionate about giving the cloud an edge, high-performance data solutions, and sustainable setups that avoid burning unnecessary resources (time, money, CPU, energy, CO2, ...). We believe in transparent, honest technical discourse.
