How and why will Pebble win, or be one of the winners, in the "war of the wearables". Ie. how will it be a similar to the android/ios platforms of mobile today
Modulus does auto scaling and load balancing between their mini server instances. The fact that I can get 3-4x more servos free from Modulus (because of that program) makes it appealing. Also features that would save costs from other SaaS solutions ex. they roll similar functionality of pagerduty into it
I still think Pebble is demonstrating more Apple qualities than Apple is atm.
1. Sleek design (Pebble Time Steel looks better)
2. Innovating new markets/ideas (the new bands are doing to open the flood gates for hardware devs)
3. Keeping it simple (Apple watch wants to put a smartphone on your wrist, Pebble focuses on what watches do best)
Thats a truth few wearable companies understand. Many just shove the same functionality of the phone onto your wrist, which is the worst of both worlds. They miss out on the unique opportunities wearables have and focus on smartphone features that are sub-optimal (at best) for a wearable.
Pebble is the leader in this way of thinking. They are showing more innovation than Apple with the announcement of the smartbands. Opening up a world of possibilities for software and hardware engineers/ideas
