I saw them talk at QCon and asked them that question. They are not running PoS through this system. They are instead using it to manage all of the devices in their restaurants (from kitchen hardware like automated fridges/fryers/IoT stuff to order tracking, building temperature control, and metrics tracking).

For those who are curious why a restaurant chain would engineer solutions such as this, perhaps this will be interesting. https://www.infoq.com/news/2017/07/iot-edge-compute-chick-fil-a https://www.infoq.com/news/2017/07/iot-edge-compute-chick-fi...
