1. SDWAN,  Customer Edge,  Edge Clouds – deploy VNFs/CNFs and applications as micro-services (Completed in R2 release using OpenWRT SDWAN Containerized)
2. DAaaS - Distributed Analytics as a Service
3. CDN - Content Delivery Network

Where on the Edge

So many definition of cloud native ? A way to move faster or performance ? Powerful way to scale ? Or reduce operational costs or capital expenditure ?

Here we are going to explore it meanings and we can cut though the waffle to identify the right Cloud native approach / strategy for new revenue generating services

Nowadays best efforts are to have a single orchestration engine to be lightweight and maintain the Nowadays best efforts are put to keep the Cloud native control plane close to workload to reduce latency, increase performance, and fault tolerance. A single orchestration engine to be lightweight and maintain the resources in a cluster of compute node, Where customer can deploy multiple VNFsNetwork Functions, such as VNF, CNF, Micro service, Function as a service (FaaS), and also deploy K8s inside the VMs

Overall Architecture

scale the orchestration infrastructure depending upon the customer demand.

ICN target on-prem edge, IoT, SDWAN, Video streaming, Edge Gaming Cloud. A single deployment model to target multiple edge use case.

Overall Architecture

On On an edge deployment, there may be multiple edges that need to be brought up.  The Administrator going to each location, using the infra-local-controller to bring up application-K8S clusters in compute nodes of each location, is not scalable.  Therefore, we have an "infra-global-controller" to control multiple "infra-local-controllers" which are controlling the worker nodes. The "infra-global-controller" is expected to provide a centralized software provisioning and configuration system.  It provides one single-pane-of-glass for administrating the edge locations with respect to infrastructure. The worker nodes may be baremetal servers, or they may be virtual machines resident on the infra-local-controller. So the minimum platform configuration is one global controller and one local controller (although the local controller can be run without a global controller).
