Edge without the magic

Railcargo Lab wanted compute next to the yard because the link to the city fails when it snows. Edge is a network design with a small computer in a weather box. It is not a category.

We put a pair of machines in the hut, a sync that can wait, and a UI that still works on the last good snapshot. Magic would have been a satellite pitch. They already had a hut.

Cloud pages that skip the hut are fiction. This one starts there.
