Exploring EdgeAgent

The EdgeAgent module is a crucial component of an Azure IoT Edge device and is part of the IoT runtime. Its purpose is to manage the life cycle and deployment of modules on the IoT Edge device. Here are some key functions and responsibilities of the EdgeAgent module:

  • Module management: The EdgeAgent module is responsible for managing modules running on the IoT Edge device. It coordinates the deployment, starting, stopping, and removal of modules based on the desired state specified in the deployment manifest.
  • Communication with IoT Hub: The EdgeAgent module establishes and maintains a secure connection with Azure IoT Hub. It acts as the intermediary between the IoT hub and the modules running on the edge device, facilitating bi-directional communication.
  • Deployment synchronization: The EdgeAgent module continuously syncs with Azure IoT Hub to ensure that the deployment manifest is up to date. If there are changes in the desired state of modules ...
