A practical session on how Azure Local Small can turn IoT and edge infrastructure management from scripts, custom images, and repetitive device work into an Azure-driven experience: zero-touch provisioning, Kubernetes with AKS Arc, secure-by-default devices, Arc Gateway, IoT applications, and local AI scenarios with Foundry Local. We will walk through the architecture, an end-to-end demo storyline, and the roadmap toward new hardware, operating systems, and physical AI workloads.
