● Space only for cloud apps
Edge Computing

managing distributed systems

5. What is cooking at Edge
● The ecosystem is evolving significantly
○ LF Edge with new projects Baetyl and Fledge along with
EdgeX Foundry
○ OpenStack’s Edge-computing projects
● New startups are coming out of stealth mode !
● Integration :: edge-cloud-edge, edge-edge, edge-cloud-cloud-edge
is a big challenge, irrespective of applications running.
