We had an internal discussion today about EdgeX.  We are seeing signs of it increasing in use and importance in the Edge ecosystem.

 

It is fairly straightforward to build and run an EdgeX application under StarlingX today.  We had it running in the Intel booth at the Denver Summit.

 

My question for the community is this:  Is there value or interest in making EdgeX apps even easier to run within StarlingX?  For example, we could create an EdgeX application in StarlingX and allow users to apply it to the system, to allow the EdgeX services to run and be managed by StarlingX.  This would add some ease of use benefits for EdgeX users while also putting us in the position of maintaining an up to date version of EdgeX.

 

Is this something we should work on as a community?
