IOTech announces a major release of Edge Builder software
UK edge software company IOTech has announced the general availability of Edge Builder v2.0, its end-to-end solution for managing edge systems. Edge Builder is designed to provide a comprehensive, flexible and open solution that simplifies and automates the management of edge systems at scale.
According to the company, Edge Builder can significantly reduce the operational costs of deploying and maintaining large-scale edge environments throughout the lifetime of the system. Designed to meet the specific needs of edge systems, Edge Builder provides light-touch provisioning and lifecycle management for edge nodes and their applications. It also supports the deployment and management of both containerised applications and native binary applications at the edge.
Edge systems are managed from a centralised Edge Builder controller that can be hosted either on-premise or in the cloud. Platform independence for both the managed nodes and the cloud environment on which the controller is deployed provides choice for Edge Builder users.
To ensure that Edge Builder addresses the market opportunity, IOTech has been working with a number of key partners, including Intel, during the development of the product.
“IOTech’s Edge Builder has been evolving and optimising on usability and scalability,” said Bryan Rodriguez, Principal Engineer, Edge Innovator at Intel. “Managing devices in the thousands is no easy task and Edge Builder is tackling this problem from a single pane of glass graphical interface. Being able to deploy applications to devices using a tagging system is a powerful tool. I look forward to the future releases of IOTech’s Edge Builder.”
“Deploying and managing edge systems at scale is one of the key challenges that our customers are facing,” said Andrew Foster, Product Director of IOTech. “We believe that this complex problem can only be solved efficiently through automation and have invested heavily in our Edge Builder solution. We’ve made the product more user-friendly through advanced graphical tooling and by removing the need for manual intervention when managing an edge deployment.”
