Edge intelligence and, by extension, any distributed computing continuum system will bring to our future society a plethora of new and useful applications, which will certainly revolutionize our way of living. Nevertheless, managing these systems challenges all previously developed technologies for Internet-distributed systems. In this regard, this article presents a set of techniques and concepts that can help manage these systems; these are framed in the main paradigm for autonomic computing, the well-known monitor–analyze–plan–execute over shared knowledge, or MAPE-K. All in all, this article aims at unveiling research opportunities for these new systems, encouraging the community to work together toward new technologies to make edge intelligence a reality.
