Enterprises interested in a cloud intelligence solution to manage their IoT edge devices and deploy cloud workloads
About Azure IoT Edge
Azure IoT Edge is a fully managed service built on Azure IoT Hub. Deploy your cloud workloads, artificial intelligence, Azure and third-party services, or your own business logic, to run on Internet of Things (IoT) edge devices via standard containers. By moving certain workloads to the edge of the network, your devices spend less time communicating with the cloud, react more quickly to local changes, and operate reliably even in extended offline periods. Deploy models built and trained in the cloud and run them on-premises. For example, if you deploy a predictive model to a factory camera to test for quality control and an issue is detected, IoT Edge triggers an alert and processes the data locally or sends it to the cloud for further analysis. Operate your edge devices reliably and securely, even when they’re offline or they have intermittent connectivity to the cloud. Azure IoT Edge device management automatically syncs the latest state of your devices.
