An Introduction to EdgeX Foundry
summary
EdgeX Foundry is a Linux Foundation, vendor‑neutral microservices platform for IoT edge computing that runs via Docker or snaps and exposes services over REST APIs. It targets constrained hardware like Raspberry Pi 3 target with goals of startup <10s and latency <1s. Recent California release refactors code to Go, adds ARM64 and security features and shrinks runtime to 42 MB footprint; ecosystem lists 65+ companies and 40+ active developers, with ready device drivers and northbound connectors (OPC UA, MQTT, Modbus) and UI and multi‑host work planned.
