Industry IoT Consortium (IIC) session at December 13th
by Ildiko Vancsa 30 Oct '21

30 Oct '21

Hi, I’m happy to announce that we will have Chuck Byers, Associate CTO at Industry IoT Consortium (Formerly Industrial Internet Consortium), joining us on our weekly call on December 13th to talk about IIC and their edge efforts. The presentation will be followed by a discussion about the topic including collaboration opportunities. Session details: Title - The Industry IoT Consortium (IIC) Edge Computing Efforts Abstract IIC has been working on edge computing for about five years. When the OpenFog Consortium joined IIC in 2019, our edge efforts were strengthened. We have worked on requirements, reference architectures, standards, best practices, testbeds, product catalogues, presentations and publications regarding edge computing. In this session, we will outline IIC's edge computing efforts, the work of our Edge Computing Task Group, and the many publications and industry best practices we have delivered. We will also describe some of our ongoing liaison work, and several whitepapers on edge computing we currently have in production.

PTG recordings are now available!
by Ildiko Vancsa 26 Oct '21

26 Oct '21

Hi, The recent Project Teams Gathering (PTG) event was held last week in an online format. The OpenInfra Edge Computing Group participated with very lively sessions on three consecutive days. Beyond taking notes we also recorded our sessions so people who weren’t able to attend can catch up or those of you who were there can refresh your memories or check parts where might’ve had to step away from the call a little bit. The recordings along with the link to the etherpad with notes are now accessible on the working group’s wiki: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Edge_Computing_Group#Virtual_PTG_Recordings… Please let me know if you have any questions or have issues with accessing any of the recordings.

PTG and upcoming meetings
by Ildiko Vancsa 24 Oct '21

24 Oct '21

Hi, We had an amazing time at the PTG this week, I would like to thank all of you who were able to attend the edge sessions at the event! A summary write-up is on its way and will be published soon, if you missed any or all of them or just would like to be able to catch up on what we discussed to refresh your memories. I will also share the links to he recordings as soon as they are available. In the meantime you can check the notes from our discussions here: https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/ecg-ptg-october-2021 As a follow up to the PTG we will have two upcoming meetings dedicated to discuss specific topics and areas: * November 8th - Digital Rebar overview and discussions by Rob Hirschfeld * November 15th - Smart Edge project overview and discussions by Neal Oliver You can also find these on the working group’s wiki page along with other resources: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Edge_Computing_Group#Upcoming_Events Please let me know if you have any questions to any of the above.

PTG Updates
by Ildiko Vancsa 19 Oct '21

19 Oct '21

Hi, Today we had great discussions with the group of people who joined. Our topics covered Automation and Trust & Verification at the Edge. For the first topic we touched on the challenges of handling a heterogenous pool of hardware resources throughout edge locations, portability and reusability and the challenges of versioning. The second topic also touched on hardware aspects through the heavy use of TPM in edge scenarios, but we were looking into other solutions as well. The session covered the challenges of deploying edge devices at remote locations considering full automation where the device doesn’t need human interaction as well as the cases where a technician interacts with the box. You can find the full notes of our 2-hour slot here: https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/ecg-ptg-october-2021 Tomorrow (Tuesday, October 19) we will start at 1400 UTC / 7am Pacific / 16:00 CEST! See you tomorrow! Thanks and Best Regards, Ildikó ——— Ildikó Váncsa Senior Manager, Community & Ecosystem Open Infrastructure Foundation

Meeting recap
by Ildiko Vancsa 06 Oct '21

06 Oct '21

Hi, This Monday we had two topics to discuss during our weekly call. We were continuing the preparation for the upcoming PTG[1] to make sure we are ready to discuss the topics we’ve outlined. Our etherpad[2] contains all the topics and session information while we are still working with a few adjacent communities to fit their sessions in. We also started to dive into the topic of edge hardware and how that relates to infrastructure software that goes on top of it. As hardware and software on the infrastructure layer can be decoupled, but will not become completely independent, we need to focus on how to handle the challenges that we are facing due to the massively distributed systems that edge computing use cases demand. We need to distinguish between IoT and edge, we need to decide the approach to take with the overall architecture and where control functions live and how to manage the hardware resources locally while might still keep a centralized control plane after all. We will keep on untangling these challenges and more on the upcoming weekly calls as we outlined on the meeting etherpad[3]. If you are interested in joining our calls please see our wiki[4] for dial-in information and agenda. Also please note that the weekly meeting on October 18 will be canceled in favor of the edge sessions we will be having at the PTG[1]. Thanks and Best Regards, Ildikó [1] https://www.openstack.org/ptg [2] https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/ecg-ptg-october-2021 [3] https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/osf-edge-computing-group [4] https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Edge_Computing_Group#Meetings ——— Ildikó Váncsa Senior Manager, Community & Ecosystem Open Infrastructure Foundation
