Microsoft Azure IoT Edge vs. SAP IoT Application Enablement

It is well suited if you have a production plant and you want to cut down the cost of cloud storage. It is best for medium to large companies if they want to process their machine generated data at their production site and only store the data that is required in cloud storage. It is less appropriate for small companies.

IoT Application Enablement is particularly useful when developing SAP UI5 applications that consume and use IoT data. There are many such examples in a number of business areas such as logistics, inventory management, process management, asset management, and others. IoT data is a key source of fuel for the intelligent enterprise.

• Thing modeling is a particularly useful aspect of IoT Application Enablement.
• IoT Application Enablement supports a large number of IoT communication standards and protocols.
• It is quite easy to expose the Thing and IoT data as OData or other RESTful services

• We had some trouble such as latency issues [and] connectivity while using Azure blob storage as an Edge Module on Azure IoT Edge runtime, so they should look into it.
• We were stuck while defining the routes for different Edge Modules on Azure IoT Edge, so they should simplify it and improve the related documentation section as well.

• I believe SAP is currently combining IoT Application Enablement into SAP Leonardo IoT. It will be worth seeing what extra features are available then.

While it is a good product, I feel like with SAP Leonardo IoT there will be a lack of support for this specific product. If it becomes part of the whole then this will be a much higher rating as their support is excellent. I'm just cautious while they combine several products into one. I have not used SAP Leonardo IoT yet.

• Very High ROI as Microsoft Azure IoT Edge completely enables the features of Edge computing.
• Real-time analytics can be achieved with Microsoft Azure IoT Edge.
• No Negative impact as such.

• Being able to incorporate IoT data directly into web applications is quite valuable, both to our customers and to our business as well.
• IoT data has helped us take advantage of other intelligent technologies such as machine learning.
• Many of our clients are looking to integrate their devices into their workflows, and this technology is part of that solution.
