Hello,

  • MbedOS is an embeded Operating system, for more info see - Free open source IoT OS and development tools from Arm | Mbed
  • MbedTLS is a C library what implements a protocol for secure connectivity (HTTPS) and crypto and so on.
  • Mbed Studio is an desktop IDE what is similar to Visual Studio Code, but only for MbedOS.
  • Keil Studio Cloud is an online IDE for MbedOS and CMSIS projects. This is new name, previously was called Mbed Studio Online.
  • Keil Studio is shorter version of Keil Studio Cloud, but in the future the Mbed Studio will be replaced by Keil Studio desktop IDE. I am not sure if this is still true.

Mbed/Keil studio is based on Theia - Cloud and Desktop IDE Platform (theia-ide.org) and allow you develop Online and Desktop IDE with same base core together.
