Eclise IoT and Eclipse Edge Native: Making Sense of the Puzzle
There are now 43 projects in the Eclipse IoT portfolio. Some of them are well known; some of them are more obscure. Together, they probably are the most exhausive toolkit of its kind in the industry. However, with that many projects, it is sometimes difficult to figure out which one to pick for a specific use case. On the top of that, the Eclipse Foundation launched its Edge Native working group in December 2019, and its Sparkplug working group in February 2020.
The aim of this presentation is to help you understand the vision between the Eclipse IoT, Edge Native and Sparkplug working groups. You will also learn how you can leverage the most popular projects in the Eclipse IoT portfolio.

What is Edge Native?
Edge computing is on the rise. In December 2019, the Eclipse Foundation launched the Eclipse Edge Native working group to address the challenges that make edge computing unique in relation to cloud and data center. In this presentation, you will understand what "Edge Native" means and how it represents a unique approach to Edge Computing. You will also explore real-world use cases from a variety of industries, and discover how Eclipse ioFog can be leveraged as a platform to support those use cases through integration with Eclipse IoT components such as Eclipse Streamsheets.
Speaker: Kilton Hopkins, Edgedworx and John Koenig, Cedalo
Intel innovations in IoT and Edge Computing
With Internet of Things (IoT) platforms, sensors and actuators becoming more performant, smaller, and cheaper, new opportunities emerge for diverse applications in multiple domains such as smart homes and cities, industrial automation, healthcare and retail, environment and agriculture, transportation and safety, digital surveillance and security, control systems and robotics, wireless sensor networks, and many others. The IoT community is more vibrant than ever but with the incredible device diversity in this space we also introduce a lot of complexity for the software developer. During recent years, Intel® established itself as a leader in IoT by releasing proven developer kits and software tools with select partners for a broad range of developer personas and skill levels. This presentation focuses primarily on the MRAA and UPM middleware projects which have been a part of the Intel IoT Developer Kits since day 1 and are now proudly joining the Eclipse IoT community. The MRAA library provides an abstraction layer for several Intel and non-Intel IoT platforms, offering C/C++, Java, JavaScript, and Python bindings to the physical pins and buses. This is subsequently used by the UPM sensor library for exposing standardized APIs intended to simplify the interaction between developers and peripherals, with virtually over 400 different specialized sensors, actuators and radio modules currently supported as part of the project.

The zenoh protocol: Zero Overhead Pub/sub, Store/Query and Compute
Eclipse zenoh is a brand new project at the Eclipse Foundation. zenoh is a protocol that has been designed to address the needs of applications that need to deal with data in movement, data at rest and computation in a scalable, efficient and location transparent data manner. zenoh unifies data in motion, data in-use, data at rest and computations. It carefully blends traditional pub/sub with geo-distributed storages, queries and computations, while retaining a level of time and space efficiency that is well beyond any of the mainstream stacks. In this presentation, you will learn about the zenoh protocol and how you can leverage it in the context of Edge Computing.
