Create a Project

In EasyEdge, a project is represented by a System, which belongs to an Entity within your EasyEdge Account. This structure allows you to logically separate different industrial environments, business units, or customer deployments—all while maintaining centralized control.

💡 When you first sign in to EasyEdge Studio, a default Entity called “My Entity” and a default System called “My System” are automatically created for you. You can use these to get started quickly, rename them to suit your needs, or create new ones from scratch.

Step 1: Create an Entity

An Entity acts as a container for one or more Systems. It can represent:

  • A customer

  • A facility or plant

  • A business unit or operational domain

To create a new Entity:

  1. Go to the EasyEdge Studio dashboard.

  2. Navigate to the Entities section.

  3. Click Create Entity and fill in the required details (name, description, etc.).


Step 2: Create a System (Project)

A System is where your actual project is built—it contains all EdgeNodes, Data Streams, Workflows, and Logic.

To create a new System:

  1. Open the desired Entity.

  2. Click Add System.

  3. Define the System name, description, and location coordinates. This System will serve as your project workspace, where all engineering and edge deployment activities take place.

Each System can include:

  • Multiple EdgeNodes deployed at the edge

  • One or more Namespaces to organize data flows

  • All engineering elements like Workflows, Filters, and Algorithms

🧠 Think of an Entity as the “who or what” and the System as the “where”—your actual project setup.
