Introduction

    IEC Type3 mainly focus on Android Application running on edge ARM Cloud architecture with GPU/ vGPU Management. Also, ARM cloud games need to have the basic features of "cloud”, such as flexibility ,

availability everywhere. Based on cloud infrastructure optimized for android application, providing ARM application services.

Install Main Components


Since        Since the components and images required by the project are relatively large, and the process of  compilation takes time, we store the compiled images on the github repository.

The link is: https://github.com/ysemi-computing/RoboxWidget.git


git clone https://github.com/ysemi-computing/RoboxWidget.git


After this step,  The code structure after downloading is as follows:


RoboxWidget/

├── android.img

├── components│  components

├── grafana-server│  server 

├── node_exporter│  exporter

├── perf_exporter│  exporter

└── prometheus

└── README.md

ls out/target/product/arm64/

android-info.txt  obj   previous_build_config.mk  mk  recovery  symbols  system.img  build_fingerprint.txt  cache.img  data  gen  module-info.json    ramdisk.img    root  system   userdata.img

...

After this,  the image of anbox has been completed, which can be viewed through docker related commandsType the command below:


sudo docker images | grep robox

android                                                               robox                          e223a91c4b58   6 days ago      860MB

Run robox android system


After the above two scripts are executed, the robox operating environment is ready, and the entire directory structure of robox can be seen as follows

...

start the first continer instance

./robox -v start 1

./robox -v start 1

       1 is the id, used by session manager and docker container

...

   container name format:  instance + id

docker exec -it instance1 sh      


step5step4: get android property sys.boot_completed

...

        It is troublesome to start anbox robox through commands to deploy in a real environment. Here, the well-known K8S system is used to complete the deployment of anbox robox instances. On this basis, anbox

Robox can be much more effectively deployed, run, monitored, and analyzed for multiple host nodes. Here is k8s cluster setup and container orchestration.

2 K8s Cluster construction

...

        The k8s cluster construction can be completed through the warehouse code, you can do as follows


git clone https://gerrit.akraino.org/r/iec.git

cd iec/deploy/compass && bash deployIEC.sh

  

  Here is the current configuration:

  • Ubuntu Version:18.04
  • Docker: 20+
  • k8s: 1.21.3

...

   kubectl apply -f https://addons.kuboard.cn/kuboard/kuboard-v3-swr.yaml

kubectl get cs 

Warning: v1 ComponentStatus is deprecated in v1.19+

NAME                 STATUS    MESSAGE             ERROR

scheduler            Healthy   ok                 

controller-manager   Healthy   ok                 

etcd-0               Healthy   {"health":"true"}  

kubectl get node

NAME     STATUS   ROLES                  AGE   VERSION

master   Ready    control-plane,master   22h   v1.21.3

work     Ready    <none>                 22h   v1.21.5

     

          At the same time, we can present the status of the cluster through the k8s visual component. Here we We use kuboard, which it is very convenient to install and use.

      then start kuboard with web browser

                                                                                                   Figure5    Prometheus and Grafana Mix


2 Bootup basic components


Prometheus      Prometheus is only used for monitoring data. The real data needs an exporter. Different exporters export different data,These data are finally presented by prometheus.

Only node exporter and perf exporter are used in this project, these two can be directly downloaded and installed with binary files.

 

Prometheus is used for data monitoring,

and then a better visual interface is grafana, the data it needs can just be obtained through Prometheus.

 

This      This project only needs to run the script below

https://github.com/ysemi-computing/RoboxWidget/blob/main/scripts/load_components.sh

.


After      After the script is executed, the required Prometheus and grafana are downloaded and run in the background

...

3 Analyze data by web browser


       Let us explore data that Prometheus has collected about itself. To use Prometheus's built-in expression browser, navigate to http://localhost:9090/graph and choose the "Table" view

within the "Graph" tab. Enter the below into the expression console and then click "Execute":

      prometheus_target_interval_length_seconds

In addition, we can log in to grafana through a web browser and see the effect as shown below


url: http://localhost:3000
