Praetexo [pray TEX o – a Latin verb for edge-related activity] began in 2018 when its founders were approached by a company in the healthcare industry that presented a challenge: how to track the status of widely-distributed health care assets and the people affected by them in real-time, all generating massive amounts of data. A centralized cloud-based architecture was clearly not up to the task.

It’s then that we identified the potential for a different kind of technology, one that would enable organizations to leverage the edge and distributed computing where and how it would create the most value.

Since then, we have grown and spread across two continents and Praetexo is now the leading intelligent edge computing and distributed cloud platform.
