Edgebase

Genix Edgebase as an App Hosting Environment along with the Management Console is an integral part of ABB Ability™ Genix for on-premises as well Cloud. Following are the key features of Edgebase App Hosting Environment in Genix Suite 25.2:

  • Robust Module Deployment for Edgebase: The module deployment on edge is made more stable with following improvements:

    • Network Interruption: Download resumes as soon as network connection is restored.

    • Download Efficiency: The file transfer is more efficient.

    • Download Before Install: The Images are downloaded onto the edge machine before installation.
