AetherEdge

AetherEdge is the open-source, industry-neutral Linux edge runtime, Kernel, CLI, and Rust SDK formerly published from the AetherIot repository name.

Implemented today

Six isolated runtime services for acquisition, automation, alarms, history, the application API, and uplink.
Shared-memory authority for current point and health state.
Embedded SQLite desired state, history, audit, and durable local outbox.
The aether CLI, governed HTTP and MCP application boundaries, Domain Packs, and the aether-edge-sdk facade.
A signed v0.5.0 source, runtime, installer, and CLI release.

Experimental today

Broker-neutral CloudLink MQTT v1 sessions, telemetry, replay, and application acknowledgement spooling.
Digest-pinned AetherContracts v0.1.0-alpha.3 consumption and public fixture execution.

Experimental CloudLink evidence does not establish production authentication, signed acknowledgement, or end-to-end crash durability. Legacy MQTT remains the compatibility default.

Stable compatibility names

The repository display name changes to AetherEdge. Existing crate names, binary names, the aether CLI, aether-edge-sdk, configuration keys, service identities, installer names, and protocol identifiers do not change in this migration.
