Abstract: In one aspect, a computerized method for implementing edge web services includes the step of providing an edge device. The edge device is provided for free to a customer. The method includes the step of monitoring a usage on the edge device by the customer. The method includes the step of charging an edge-device entity based on the usage of the edge device and an application in the edge device. An orchestrator communicates the edge device usage statistics to an enterprise system that provided the edge device to the customer.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are various systems, apparatuses, software, and methods relating to data diode-TCP proxy with a User Datagram Protocol (UDP) across a wide area network (WAN) comprising providing a WAN data diode using a uni-directional semantics protocol, providing a set of data diode proxies in either end of a point-to-point WAN link, providing a symmetric key encryption semantics to extend the WAN data diode securely across a WAN that is specified, wherein the symmetric key encryption semantics are implemented through the set of data diode proxies on either end of the point-to-point WAN link, employing a unidirectional protocol in communication transmitted using the WAN, and, with data diode proxies, terminating one or more data channels on either end of the point-to-point WAN link or transporting a requisite information across the WAN over the uni-directional protocol.
