V2 APIs - all new REST endpoints using improved model objects (for request and responses) and improved API URIs,
Use of message bus between Device Services and Application Services (Core Data can also subscribe to the sensor readings or be removed if persistence is not necessary)
Improved security to include enabling the Consul API through the API Gateway, providing a common means for all services to retrieve secrets from the secret store, and a means for Consul to bootstrap with its ACL system enabled which provides for better protection of the key/value configuration.
Simplified Device Profiles
Addition of new Device Services (LLRP, GPIO, CoAP, and UART)
New Graphical User Interface
Removal of a lot of technical debt accumulated over four years (example: port assignments that align with IANA defined dynamic/private port range definition)

Known Bugs

...

Create and modified fields will be missing when querying Device and Device Service on Core Metadata (see https://github.com/edgexfoundry/edgex-go/issues/3630)
Core command will crash if the device service address for the device service is unreachable (see https://github.com/edgexfoundry/edgex-go/issues/3611)

App service panics when MQTTSecretSend AuthMode is blank - a bug in the app functions SDK (https://github.com/edgexfoundry/app-functions-sdk-go/issues/920)
Call to log correlation ID results in unsupported value type in the app functions SDK (see https://github.com/edgexfoundry/app-functions-sdk-go/issues/923)
FilterByResource on the app functions SDK creates a new event without required fields (see https://github.com/edgexfoundry/app-functions-sdk-go/issues/922)
