Avassa Joins Forces with Project Margo to Shape the Future of Edge Systems

The industrial landscape is undergoing a profound transformation. The shift from proprietary, closed systems to a dynamic, multi-vendor environment is redefining how software operates in distributed settings. This change is driven by the growing need to streamline application lifecycles, particularly in hosting AI/ML workloads close to the data source, enabling faster, smarter, and more efficient decision-making and accelerated feature growth.

We are thrilled to announce that Avassa has officially joined Project Margo, a leading initiative focused on fostering collaboration and innovation in industrial automation.

Bringing Expertise to the Table

Avassa specializes in managing the lifecycle of containerized workloads across edge environments and now joins project Margo to contribute our hands-on implementation and deployment expertise gained from industrial use cases within our user base. By collaborating within the Margo ecosystem, Avassa aims to join the member community in further advancing the industry’s ability to navigate the complexities of modern edge systems.

“Our membership in Margo represents a commitment to shaping the future of edge and industrial automation systems through collaboration and innovation. We believe that by sharing knowledge and establishing clear frameworks, we can collectively unlock the potential of these transformative technologies” said Carl Moberg, CTO of Avassa.

A Unified Taxonomy and Path Towards the Future

As distributed edge systems grow in scale and significance, there is a pressing need for a shared taxonomy and established patterns to ensure consistency and reliability. Avassa is committed to helping develop these foundational elements while sharing insights from our operational experiences.

“We’re delighted to welcome Avassa to Project Margo. Their unique, opinionated approach to application management, combined with their real-world experience, will be invaluable in building a strong foundation for the interoperability of next generation edge systems,” said Bart Nieuwborg, Chairman of Project Margo.

Joining Project Margo aligns with our mission to offer organizations solutions that meet edge-specific operational challenges systems with precision, security, and scalability. Together, we will push the boundaries of what is possible and literally set new standards for the industrial automation landscape.
