# Akraino Edge Stack

> Akraino Edge Stack, a Linux Foundation project in formation, will create an open source software stack to improve the state of edge cloud infrastructure for carrier, provider, and IoT networks. To seed the new project, AT\&T is contributing code designed for carrier-scale edge computing applications running in virtual machines and containers to support reliability and performance requirements. Akraino Edge Stack will offer users new levels of flexibility to scale edge cloud services quickly, to maximize the applications or subscribers supported on each server, and to help ensure the reliability of systems that must be up at all times.
