CENTER Node consists of 3 components. MECM , Applcm AppStore and Developer Platform. MEC Manager is the central entity in the MEC system responsible for application and service deployment in an highly distributed computing environment, it provides overall view of hosts and applications deployed in the hosts.

MECM comprises of MEP manager
MECM: comprises of MEO and MEPM which performs the following tasks
➢ Application Package Management: On-boarding of application packages and if necessary adjusting them to comply with operator policies, keeping a record of on-boarded packages
➢ Applicatin LCM: Selecting appropriate MEC host(s) for application instantiation based on user inputs, keeping record of instantiated applications on specified hosts. Also carries out other LCM operations like query, deletion, termination etcMEO: Maintains system level view of edges and carries out the Application orchestration to the desired Edge based on Application requirements and Edge node resource availability.
➢ MEPM: It is MEP manager which carries out application life cycle management and element management for specific Edge(s).
AppStore: It is like a market place for Application developer to launch their applications.
Developer platform: It is a platform for developer to carry out development and test their applications.
EDGE Node
The EDGE are the components where the real action takes place. Edge Node components manages the execution of various Telco Edge Applications, it provides various services which can be leveraged by edge applications for smooth functioning and its planned to provide additional aPaas services like Machine Vision, Video Analytics , IoT Analytics etc in future releases. The MEP sites will be a single node or a multiple node K3S Cluster, on which applications will be deployed the MECM Application Management module. The MEC Host will be hosted on a light weight OS.
