Choosing a right physical edge device for PLCs

Team, 

 

We're building a solution that - 

  • Connects to PLCs over Ethernet/IP 
  • Supports OPC UA 
  • Running edge runtime on Ubuntu 18.04 

 

Right now we've deployed edge runtime in a VM. we wanted to use a physical device instead of deploying edge runtime in a VM.

 

Any recommendations?

    Hi there ismaan1998!

     

    You can check out our Azure Certified Device catalog to view some options. I would recommend you filter by your specific requirements (e.g. Industry Protocols: OPC UA, Connectivity: Other, Operating System: Linux Other) to help narrow your search.

    Since you are also looking for device that run IoT Edge Runtime, I would also recommend checking out our Edge Managed certified devices, which have been validated to run IoT Edge runtime. 

     

    I've also included a link to these suggested search parameters. 

     

    Hope this helps!
