Amazon’s Greengrass IoT Platform Is Now Available as a Snap for Ubuntu Linux

Greengrass was launched by Amazon last week as the latest IoT development platform designed from the ground up to allow devs create intelligent edge software. Amazon is currently in talks with several hardware distributors and is hoping to deliver Greengrass to as many devices as possible. For example, Amazon believes its Greengrass IoT platform would make its way into industrial gateways, home gateways, as well as smart microphones. Of course, the possibilities are endless for deploying Greengrass, so they’re now collaborating with Canonical to package it as a Snap for Ubuntu and other Snappy-enabled OSes.
