    AWS IoT Greengrass

    Score9 out of 10
    N/AAWS IoT Greengrass is an IoT service that extends AWS to edge devices so they can act locally on the data they generate, while still using the cloud for management, analytics, and durable storage. Users are charged based on the number of AWS IoT Greengrass Core devices that interact with the AWS Cloud in a given month.N/A

    Azure IoT Edge

    Score8 out of 10
    N/AAzure IoT Edge is a fully managed service built on Azure IoT Hub. Users can deploy cloud workloads—artificial intelligence, Azure and third-party services, or business logic—to run on Internet of Things (IoT) edge devices via standard containers. The vendor states that by moving certain workloads to the edge of the network, devices spend less time communicating with the cloud, react more quickly to local changes, and operate reliably even in extended offline periods.N/A

    • It works even if there is no internet at client location. It will record all the generated data and only send them to cloud storage when there is internet connection.
    • It allows you to bring cloud functionality down to Edge location in the form of docker container.
    • It also supports two way communication from device to cloud and vice-versa.

    • ROI was high, as we were able to impress our clients with POC of Microsoft Azure IoT Edge with our IoT based ERP product.
    • We were able to perform our POC for almost free, as there no charges for Azure IoT Edge, only minimal charges for storage.
