 \\
+In addition to the integration method using BioStar2 SW API or BioStar2 Device SDK, G-SDK is recently released as a new integration option for device management, user management, and log management. \\
+==== What is G-SDK? ====
+G-SDK is one of the integration options for communicating with BioStar 2 devices. It is a lightweight, scalable, and cross-platform solution which will expedite your development. \\

-==== G-SDK Overview ====

+==== What is different from BioStar 2 Device SDK? ====
+Existing BioStar 2 Device SDK provides C++ library with C#. G-SDK is released to provide flexible development for those who would like to meet the requirements below.
+Let's take a look for an easy comparison between BioStar 2 Device SDK and G-SDK. \\
+{{:en:gsdk_comparison.png?600|}} \\
+** [Figure 3. BioStar 2 Device SDK vs G-SDK] ** \\
+\\
+\\
+One of the biggest advantages of G-SDK compare to Device SDK is that it supports various languages. For the last years, Device SDK users have had difficulty using development language other than C++ or C# which is in the sample code. \\
+Since BioStar 2 Device SDK can communicate with C++ library, you have to use C++ language or need to marshall all the APIs and structures in the library into other languages. Currently BioStar 2 Device SDK provides only C# marshalling sample. \\
+This is a limitation of BioStar 2 Device SDK due to the structure. \\

 ''How G-SDK can support so many languages?''  \\
 It is because G-SDK is based on gRPC. gRPC is an open RPC framework that supports many languages developed by Google. \\
 Basically, the device gateway is the one that communicates with BioStar 2 device. Your client applications can connect to it using gRPC client libraries.\\

+==== What are the next features? ====
 \\
-{{:en:gsdk_structure.png|}} \\
-** [Figure 1. G-SDK Structure] ** \\
+** 1. Master Gateway ** \\
+G-SDK can support up to 1000 device connections with a Device gateway. \\
+Currently, Master gateway that will support up to 100,000 device connections is under development. \\
+Master Gateway helps you handle multiple Device gateways and it can be deployed on a cloud server or provide mobile direct accessibility too. \\

+** [Figure 6. Device Gateway vs Master Gateway] ** \\
 \\
-The device Gateway that communicates with BioStar 2 device can be run on a server or cloud. The core modules use BioStar 2 protocols and written by GO language.\\
+** 2. Advanced AC API ** \\
+G-SDK doesn't support advanced AC such as Zone, Wiegand or RS485 but it supports only simple configurations & features. \\
+In the future, G-SDK will support all the APIs that are supported in the BioStar 2 Device SDK : Zone, Wiegand, RS485, etc. \\
+\\
+** 3. More language support samples ** \\
+G-SDK provides C#, Java, Python, Go and Node samples. Furthermore, G-SDK is planning to support Android, iOS, Ruby samples. \\
