AWS IoT Edge runtime that extends cloud capabilities to local devices, enabling them to act locally on data while still using the cloud for management and analytics. Like having a local manager at each location who can make immediate decisions while still reporting to headquarters.
Manufacturing plants use Greengrass to process sensor data locally for real-time quality control, while periodically syncing aggregated data to the cloud for long-term analysis.
AWS IoT Greengrass, Azure IoT Edge, and Google Cloud IoT Edge provide similar edge computing capabilities, allowing local data processing and cloud integration. OCI currently does not have a direct equivalent.
