Litmus Edge Manager is a centralized management platform for edge devices, data, and applications at the edge. As a single point of control for all Litmus Edge instances (edge devices), Litmus Edge Manager handles large-scale deployments across multiple facilities. Litmus Edge Manager gives you control over edge devices, from bootstrap to replacement, with secure mass deployment, over-the-air updates, and automated actions.

Litmus Edge Manager offers an option to act as a central data repository. It is used to set up and manage all aspects of a Litmus Edge environment.

You can access Litmus Edge Manager from a software-defined private network anywhere, using:

- Web User Interface
- REST APIs: to manipulate data programmatically
