Azure self-hosted agents run jobs directly on host

Hello,

I have a question about Azure Pipeline agents.
I am currently working on a Jetson Nano and want that self-hosted agents run jobs directly on the host (Jetson Nano).
I do not want that the agents run jobs in the VM or in a container because that would be another environment. Except a container that offers access to all devices that are connected with the Jetson Nano, that would be okay.
Is something like this possible?
I came across the suggestion that installing Azure IoT Edge for Linux (which requires an IOT Edge Hub) could be the solution but is there anything else I can try?

    Hello @ivii_hardcoder ,

    An IoT Hub is a resource within your Azure subscription.

    There is a free tier:

    Together with other Azure resources which are free (for 12 months of forever) you can start a basic Azure experience without spending a lot of money.

    An alternative is using Azure IoT Central which offers a trial version. The first two devices in an application are always free.
