Mendix on Edge

0
Hi All,One of our customer is looking to run Mendix apps on Edge.When I read the documentation, I understood that Mendix on Edge is possible through Industrial Edge of Siemens IoT platform.Now my question is, is this tightly coupled with Siemenes IoT?Say if customer has a different edge platform like Nvidea Tesnsor RT, is it still possible to run Mendix applications on the same?I am very new to Edge. And I request some basic details on my questionRegardsAjay

Hi Ajay,


Yes, Mendix CAN run on non-Siemens edge platforms like NVIDIA, but it is NOT officially supported out of the box.Mendix apps are packaged as Docker containers. Any edge device that supports Docker can run Mendix including NVIDIA Jetson.


I hope this helps

Hi all,

the dedicated Mendix on Edge offering is tightly coupled with Siemens Industrial Edge. This means it's designed exclusively for deployment and operation on Siemens Industrial Edge Devices.


Therefore, if a customer is using a different edge platform, it is not possible to run the Mendix on Edge offering on that platform. The Mendix Device License is specifically for Siemens Industrial Edge.


Hope this clears things up!
