Systems and methods for processing data proximate to the point of collection

A system comprising:

• an isolatable data aggregation and analytics node configured to aggregate and analyze data proximate to a point of data collection, the isolatable data aggregation and analytics node including:
• a first control node configured to execute a cluster manager and a storage manager;
• a first plurality of subordinate compute nodes configured to execute tasks under the control of the cluster manager;
• the first storage manager configured to manage storage of data received by the isolatable data aggregation and analytics node across one or more storage devices shared by the first plurality of subordinate compute nodes;
• a first network interface configured to interface with one or more devices proximate to the system over a local network connection;
• and
• a first network switch configured to route data between the first network interface, the control node, and the plurality of subordinate compute nodes;
• a reduced capacity isolatable data aggregation and analytics node configured to interface with a sensor and the isolatable data aggregation and analytics node, the reduced capacity isolatable data aggregation and analytics node including:
• a second control node;
• a second plurality of subordinate compute nodes;
• wherein the second control node is configured to execute a cluster manager under control of the isolatable data aggregation and analytics node and a second storage manager configured to manage the storage of data received by the reduced capacity isolatable data aggregation and analytics node across storage shared by a second plurality of subordinate compute nodes;
• a second network interface configured to interface with the sensor over a personal area network, receive sensor data from the sensor, and to transmit sensor data over the local network connection to the isolatable data aggregation and analytics node;
• and
• a second network switch configured to route data between the second network interface, the second control node, and the second plurality of subordinate compute nodes.

A method of aggregating and analyzing data proximate to a point of collection, comprising:

• receiving data collected by a sensor located proximate to an isolatable data aggregation and analytics node;
• routing the received data within the isolatable aggregation and analytics node to a process;
• storing the routed and received data in storage managed by a storage manager executed by a control node within the isolatable data aggregation and analytics node;
• and
• providing the received data to a compute cluster within the isolatable aggregation and analytics node, wherein the compute cluster is configured to process the data using a model stored within the isolatable data aggregation and analytics node.
