Posted on Feb 21, 2022 by Mykhaylo Sul

Container technologies have been playing a significant role in the software development world since their inception with chroot. Thanks to Docker, containers have become the de facto standard for packaging, distribution, deployment, and running of cloud applications. You know they say "Build, Ship, and Run Any App, Anywhere". The question is, though, is this Anywhere really anywhere? In particular, can we "Build, Ship and Run Any App, on Any IoT & Edge Devices" or at least Some Apps on Some IoT & Edge Devices? Let's think about whether Containers can be applied to IoT & Edge software development too, whether it's feasible at all, and if yes, what benefits it brings. And last but not least, what challenges in adaptation of Containers to the Edge use-case there are.
