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.

Test your knowledge of EDGE compute devices, container architectures, cloud-based CI/CD workflows, and application software stack requirements with this quiz. Learn about the challenges and benefits of using EDGE compute devices and cloud services for deploying and monitoring containerized applications.
