Enterprise Application on Lightweight 5G Telco Edge is a blueprint under 5G/MEC system blueprint family. It intends to provide a edge computing platform along with application orchestration & management to host enterprise applications on lightweight 5G Telco Edge. BP also intend to provide platform for enterprise application developers to develop, test, package & onboard their applications easily & quickly, thereby empowering developers to innovate & ship faster. Also eventually BP aims to provide platform capabilities and features for "MEC in an Enterprise Setting"
EdgeGallery in version 1.1 has been added following new features.
Details can be found in below EdgeGallery links:

http://docs.edgegallery.org/zh_CN/release-v1.0/Release%20Notes/EdgeGallery_RN_zh.html
Smart Shelf application enhancement:
OCD scripts optimisations for easier up gradation of EdgeGallery versions.
The edge computing platform(s) (MEP) needs to be installed at the telco edge(s) and Application development/management related components (MECM (MEO+MEPM), AppStore, Developer Platform) needs to be installed in Telco's cloud (private/public). Edge computing platform (MEP) provides a platform as a service environment for running "Enterprise Applications"
In order to be useful in this release, BP requires following pre-requisites:
