2/12/2021 - Team Meeting

Attendees : 

  • Surojit
  • Biswajit
  • Apoorv

Topics discussed :

To Do :

  • Apoorv will try VPN to Lab from Linux and Windows - ref - Shared Community Lab
  • AWS - Surojit will fix the access
  • Tina/Venu - help to define the base project - to be used for dev - Tina :: IEC+Type+2+
  • Create K8 cluster in AWS and later in Lab - only to test access/logistics, not for dev
  • Request advice for Gerrit or Github. (Tina : suggestion is Gerrit as all BPs are there) - Eric 
  • Check if Zuul/OpenLab  is easier - Aditya


3/12/2021 - Team Meeting

Attendees : 

  • Surojit
  • Biswajit
  • Tina
  • Aditya

Topics discussed :

  • Discussed benefit of using KubeEdge and PCEI
  • Tina provided contact for KubeEdge
  • Shared update for AWS K8 deployment 



4/9/2021 - Team Meeting

Attendees : 

  • Surojit
  • Biswajit

Topics discussed :

  • Currently PCEI, KubeEdge don't solve or provide the last mile connectivity, and assumes it as existing
  • RuralEdge target areas don't have 3G/4G/5G connections 
  • For 2G/3G Areas we are exploring Private LTE solution to resolve the last mile network
  • Oleg from PCEI Team suggested that Private LTE is the only option where 4G/5G network is not available to keep latency <30ms 
  • Abhishek has deployed K8 using x86 EC2 instances

Next Step :

  • Abhishek will deploy new k8/EKS cluster on ARM instances
  • Surojit will deploy RE Video Bridge on Jetson Nano and test over local WiFi
  • Biswajit will work with PCEI to architect the network solution for the cases listed below :
    • Where no network is available (Private LTE, Wifi with no overlay with Public Network)
    • Where 2G/3G Public Network is available
    • Where 4G Public Network is available
    • No 5G solution required. 5G will solve the network latency


4/23/2021 - Team Meeting

Attendees : 

  • Surojit
  • Biswajit
  • Aditya
  • David
  • Tina

Topics discussed :

  • Private LTE device required. Biswajit researched AirSpeed 3.0
  • Abhishek deployed EKS on AWS with ARM instances (1 cluster with 2 nodes)
    • Instances used : T3a.micro X 2, T4g.micro X 1
  • PCIE Outpost meeting was cancelled. Need to follow up with Matt to get advise on RE use of Outpost
  • Surojit working on Video Bridge deployment on k8
  • Surojit Deployed Video Bridge on Jetson Nano board as POC. Need a strategy to test. 
  • Surojit and Abhishek working on splitting the apps into modular components for edge distribution  
  • Need to create a new repo in Gerrit for Release 5
  • Also need to start publishing logs (CICD same as in )
  • Tina suggested looking at TinkerBell https://tinkerbell.org/ [can provide baked hardware]
  • Working with Smart Gaon Foundation for POC logistics in India - ETA 5/31 (www.smartgaon.org)
