SoC == System On a Chip.
It's a single-chip micro-controller embedded inside something that's
not a general purpose computer (e.g. it's in a router, or piece of
industrial equipment, or whatever). It may only have a couple MB of
memory, it might have only a minimal RTOS (non-Linux/Unix,
non-Windows), or it may actually have no OS at all. It almost
certainly doesn't have a hard drive.
Many years ago, there was a "deeply embedded Python" project that was
attempting to get Python running on such platforms, but it's been
abandoned for ages. IIRC, it was using Python 1.50 as a base version.
