Business driver

  • Edge cloud requires initiatives for cloud gaming on Android platform  
  • 5G + edge bring low latency and high-throughput for cloud gaming, which improves user experience
  • More and more Android applications will migrate into edge compute platform. Building an android platform is necessary, and it's rigid demand. 


Business use cases

  Android Cloud Gaming

  •   AR/VR  Android Application

  • Business Cost - Initial Build Cost Target Objective

    Using virtualization technology instead of mobile chip board on ARM server will reduce the cost of android platform.  ARM server board also let android platform more flexible and more agile.

    In order to support cloud gaming and AR/VR, ARM server need have GPU inside. 

    >= 3 ARM Servers, with GPU embedded

    >=0 X86 Servers, with GPU embedded
    • 2 ARM Nodes
    • Android 9.0
      • GPU (AMD, NVIDIA)
    • Android virtualization layer: Robox, docker.


    Business Cost – Target Operational Objective

    It more like a cloud platform, but it's specific for android application.  

    • It needs Helm and Ansible for the automation and management tools to keep operational cost lower
    • It needs to monitor the status of android system status and application status. 
    • Maintain a mixed edge platform including x86 and ARM. It's more complex
    • Kubernetes
    • Android 9.0
      • GPU (AMD, NVIDIA)
    • Host OS kernel optimization;
    • Android virtualization layer: Robox, docker.
    • GPU (AMD/NVIDIA)
    • Both ARM and X86 can support it.


    Security need

    Security is very important in this use case, especially for containerized android system.

    Blueprint Family - Proposed   Name

    Integrated Edge Cloud (IEC)


    Use Case

    Cloud Gaming and AR/VR


    Blueprint proposed Name

    IEC Type 3: Android cloud native applications on Arm servers in edge


    Initial POD Cost (capex)

    2 ARM bare metal machines, 1 10G switch, and existing 5G hardware resources1 AMD GPU, 1 NIVIDA GPU


    Scale & Type

    For the smallest deployment, this requires 2 ARM bare metal machines. For large deployments, this could span to large number of bare metal machines.


    Applications

    Android application, such as cloud gaming, VR/AR.
