Example methods are provided to deploy an Internet of Things (IoT) solution in a hybrid environment. The methods include deploying a first agent application on a first edge gateway of a first vendor by the first edge gateway. The first agent application is configured to collect a first set of information associated with the first edge gateway. The methods include deploying a second agent application on a second edge gateway of a second vendor by the second edge gateway. The second agent application is configured to collect a second set of information associated with the second edge gateway. In response to a determination of a first virtualized computing environment on the first edge gateway or a second virtualized computing environment on the second edge gateway fulfils a first requirement of a template to deploy the IoT solution, the methods include deploying the IoT solution in the first virtualized computing environment, the second virtualized computing environment, or both.
