Amazon Deep Learning Partnership With AgentVi

Author: Brian Karas, Published on Jan 15, 2018

Amazon is aiming to grow its Kinesis Video Streams offering that "enables you to quickly build computer vision and ML applications" in the cloud. One of their new partners is video analytics developer AgentVi.

But what benefit does this provide? How does it work? What tradeoffs in cost and design does it bring?

IPVM spoke with AgentVi's CEO to better understand the offering, and how AgentVi plans to position this cloud offering. Our analysis inside.
