provide, via a first edge device of the plurality of edge devices, remote updates to one or more other edge devices of the plurality of edge devices by:

enabling a local caching of update packages at the first edge device; and

providing an indication of availability of the update packages to the one or more other edge devices, wherein the update packages are relevant to the one or more other edge devices of the plurality of edge devices;

configure a software update package for the one or more other edge devices; and

deploy one or more deployment management tools for the one or more other edge devices.

3 . The system of claim 1 , wherein providing the remote updates for an application comprises providing reliability features comprising at least one of retries, fail-over strategies, encrypting, signing checking, or integrity checking.

4 . The system of claim 1 , wherein deploying the one or more deployment management tools to manage the one or more other edge devices comprises deploying an application on the one or more other edge devices or removing the application on the one or more other edge devices.

5 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the processing circuit is further configured to control, via the first edge device, hardware security features of the one or more other edge devices.

6 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the processing circuit is further configured to:

receive instructions from a user interface; and

adjust the software update package on an instance-by-instance basis based on the received instructions.

7 . The system of claim 1 , wherein the processing circuit is further configured to:

detect, via at least one of the plurality of edge devices, abnormal behavior of the one or more other edge devices using machine learning techniques;

identify, via the first edge device, one or more device requirements of the one or more other edge devices; and

integrate, via the first edge device, integration of one or more applications on the one or more other edge devices with other applications in the plurality of edge devices via one or more application programming interfaces (APIs).

8 . A method of managing a plurality of edge devices, the method comprising:

enabling, at a first edge device, a local caching of update packages for a remote update for one or more other edge devices of the plurality of edge devices;

providing, via the first edge device of the plurality of edge devices, an indication of availability of the update packages to the one or more other edge devices, wherein the update packages are relevant to the one or more other edge devices;

configuring, via the first edge device, a software update package for the one or more other edge devices; and

deploying one or more deployment management tools to manage the one or more other edge devices.

9 . The method of claim 8 , wherein providing the remote update is for an application and comprises providing the update packages to at least one of a basic input/output system (BIOS), a boot loader, an operating system (OS), a software application, or a system kernel.

10 . The method of claim 8 , wherein providing the remote update is for an application and comprises providing reliability features comprising at least one of retries, fail-over strategies, encrypting, signing checking, or integrity checking.

11 . The method of claim 8 , wherein deploying the one or more deployment management tools to manage the one or more other edge devices comprises deploying an application on the one or more other edge devices or removing the application on the one or more other edge devices.

12 . The method of claim 8 , further comprising controlling, via the first edge device, hardware security features of the one or more other edge devices.

13 . The method of claim 8 , wherein the method further comprises:

receiving instructions from a user interface; and

adjusting the software update package on an instance-by-instance basis based on the received instructions.

14 . The method of claim 8 , wherein the method further comprises:

detecting, via at least one of the plurality of edge devices, abnormal behavior of the one or more other edge devices using machine learning techniques;

identifying, via the first edge device, one or more device requirements of the one or more other edge devices; and

integrating, via the first edge device, integration of one or more applications on the one or more other edge devices with other applications in the plurality of edge devices via one or more application programming interfaces (APIs).

15 . A non-transitory computer readable media for managing a plurality of edge devices comprising a processing circuit comprising a processor and a memory, the media storing instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause automatic operations to be performed comprising:

providing, via a first edge device of the plurality of edge devices, remote updates for one or more other edge devices of the plurality of edge devices by:

enabling, via the first edge device, a local caching of update packages at the first edge device; and

providing, via the first edge device, an indication of availability of the update packages to the one or more other edge devices, wherein the update packages are relevant to the one or more other edge devices;

configuring, via the first edge device, a software update package for the one or more other edge devices; and

deploying, via the first edge device, one or more deployment management tools to manage an application on the one or more other edge devices.

16 . The media of claim 15 , wherein providing the remote updates for the application comprises providing the update packages to at least one of a basic input/output system (BIOS), a boot loader, an operating system (OS), a software application, or a system kernel.

17 . The media of claim 15 , wherein providing the remote updates for the application comprises providing reliability features comprising at least one of retries, fail-over strategies, encrypting, signature validation, or integrity validation.

18 . The media of claim 15 , wherein deploying the one or more deployment management tools to manage the application comprises deploying the application on the one or more other edge devices or removing the application on the one or more other edge devices.

19 . The media of claim 15 , wherein the processing circuit is further configured to control, via the first edge device, hardware security features of the one or more other edge devices.

20 . The media of claim 15 , wherein the processing circuit is further configured to:
