Study Notes
- EDGE refers to the closer placement of resources that move, store, and process data.
- EDGE compute devices have limited infrastructure capacity and capability, and can be challenging to secure.
- There are specific requirements for EDGE-based container architectures, including the need for an EDGE compute device and the application workload.
- The cloud brings many benefits to EDGE-based applications, including increased infrastructure capacity and bandwidth.
- EDGE compute devices are capable of running container-based applications
- CI/CD workflows can be used to deploy bios/firmware updates over the air
- Cloud-based CI/CD workflows make use of role-based access control for source repositories
- Policies can be used to implement quality gates to ensure container image integrity
- Cloud-based services can be used to monitor the state of a container and container clusters within each EDGE compute device
- The software stack for application includes a container runtime engine, container orchestration interface, and core services.
- Modular functions are beneficial for the software stack for application, and the EDGE compute solution is a good example of this.
- EDGE compute resources can be used in function-specific containers, and once core services for CPU, storage, and networking are built, other services can be layered as containerized services.
- Within the application itself, each component can be developed and deployed.
