Azure IoT Edge devices

Azure IoT Edge devices are physical devices that can run the Azure IoT Edge runtime, a component of the Azure IoT Edge service provided by Microsoft. Azure IoT Edge is a platform that enables users to deploy and manage cloud workloads on edge devices, bringing the power of the cloud closer to devices generating data.

Azure IoT Edge devices can include a wide range of devices, including industrial equipment, gateways, sensors, and cameras. These devices are typically located at the edge of a network, closer to where the data is generated, and have more compute and storage compared to typical IoT devices. By deploying the Azure IoT Edge runtime on these devices, users can run cloud services and AI models directly on the devices, enabling real-time data processing, analytics, and decision-making at the edge.

Some key features and capabilities of Azure IoT Edge devices include:

  • Edge computing: Azure IoT Edge devices can process and analyze data locally...
