The Need for Open Source at the Edge

Edge projects often need to incorporate new connectivity services such as 5G and increasingly powerful analytics algorithms. There is a need for flexibility to accommodate and integrate these new technologies into embedded edge systems. There also is a need for speed in today’s highly dynamic marketplace.

Open source solutions help address both issues. They benefit from a community that rapidly adjusts to changes, addresses problems, and enables innovation. However, when edge applications are put into production, enterprise-class features and support are necessary.
