I am quite new to the Internet of Things. I checked the Intel website and went through a few other links too. But I cannot clearly understand what is the difference between Intel Galileo and Intel Edison? And which one should be used when?
Does anyone know of a good resource for reference?

Intel has decided to stop the production of its Atom-based Joule, Edison COM (computer-on-module) and Arduino-backed Galileo development board. The chip maker seems to have made the decision after failing to compete in the market.
The Intel Galileo is the first Arduino Certified board that provides a mini PCI Express (mPCIe) slot. This allows you to connect standard mPCIe modules like Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and SIM card adapters for cell phones. Synchronize data between modules using the boards-integrated Real Time Clock.
I work at Intel and may be able to help.
Intel(R) Edison is a product-ready, general-purpose compute platform optimized to enable rapid innovation and product development.Intel Edison is ideal for small form factor devices that require a powerful computing system. Some good use cases are robots and quadcopters, 3D fabrication machines, remote asset monitoring, and audio processing.
Intel(R) Galileo is an open source, Arduino-compatible platform that enables educators, students, and makers of all skill levels to quickly and easily engage in projects. It combines the simplicity of the Arduino development environment with the performance of Intel technology and the advanced capabilities of a full Linux software stack.
A really great place to learn more about both platforms is our online community at maker.intel.com. You can join the conversation, find getting started guides, and share your projects in our project gallery.
