The guide covers the installation details for common components for ELIOT which are applicable the Blueprints ELIOT IOT Gateway and ELIOT SD-WAN.
This guide provides the information for setting up the ELIOT Environment which includes ELIOT Manager and ELIOT Edge Node(s) with details of software and hardware specifications.
For Release-2.0 the scope of the guide covers two ELIOT deployments one is using Kubernetes and the other one using Kubeedge (Lightweight Kubernetes). The common components include ELIOT Lightweight Tailored OS, ELIOT UI , ELIOT Command Line Interface to bootstrap the ELIOT Cluster Installation.
The ELIOT Manager can be any Cloud Virtual Machine having Ubuntu OS 16.04 and should be able to ping and SSH to the Eliot Edge Node. The ELIOT Edge Node will be a Virtual Machine having Ubuntu 0S 16.04.
