Hi,

Thanks Adrien and Bogdan for chiming in with reviews and comments.

I typed up this first blog post of a mini-series around distributed systems to be a bit controversial. It is also intended to highlight challenges, such as the parts that you mention with centralization.

I think there is desire to have the ability to manage your whole system like it was a single DC, even if it’s not realistic. This is what I wanted to indirectly point out with the phrasing how it is right now. We’ve also went into discussing the single-pane-of-glass type of management solutions, but I didn’t want to add that here just yet as then it would end up being a longer piece that we would need to spend more time on to agree.

I would love to go into the discussion about hierarchical solutions in the upcoming pieces as well as on our weekly calls and on this thread. I think it is a great continuation to look into how the desires can be addressed in reality.

What do you think?

Thanks,
Ildikó

Hi Beth,

Thanks for the edits! I did a bit of cleanup on it to prep it for publishing. I think it’s ready now.

If anyone is still editing the blog post please let me know ASAP. I will send the text over to my colleague later today to get it ready to publish on Superuser early next week.

Thanks,

Hi Rob,

No worries, thank you for getting back on the thread and thank you for your trust as well. We did a thorough review on the weekly call this Monday so we can go ahead and flesh out some details on the topic onwards which should be more exciting. :)

I will get the blog post all setup to publish next week.

Have a great vacation!

Thanks,
Ildikó

The term ''hierarchical'' looks to me also connoted. 
I have the feeling that it is the notion of a mechanism capable of giving the illusion that all the edge sites form a single system that is important, isn't it?
A kind of single pane of glass that can be used to manage the life cycle of -- both -- the edge sites/areas -- and -- the edge applications.

If I'm correctly understanding your point, this might be ok but we need to consider that some events are related to the edge applications you would like to execute across  different edge sites (i.e. events are not only related to keeping edge sites synchronised).

Adrien

Also on vacation on my side (trying to apply the concept of the edge: moving forward while being disconnected from the rest of the troop;))

I just take a few minutes to read the text and I found it excellent!

Thanks for the job.

Hi,

First of all let me announce that our new blog post, 'Is Edge Computing a Distributed System at Scale?’, is now live on Superuser: https://superuser.openstack.org/articles/is-edge-computing-a-distributed-system-at-scale/

The discussion on distributed systems and/vs edge computing has just started, we have a lot more to untangle there. Hereby I would like to invite everyone who has some follow up thoughts or questions to the above blog to join our calls on Mondays at 6am PDT / 1300 UTC[1].

We have a thread already going about the distributed systems topic. If you’re not on the edge-computing mailing list[2], you can check the archive here: http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/edge-computing/2021-August/000779.html
If you would like to join the discussion please subscribe to the mailing list and reply to the thread.

We are also continuously looking for new topics, so if you have an edge conundrum you can bring that to discuss with the group as well!


The Edge Computing Group will be participating in the upcoming PTG[3] in October. We have three slots booked for this fully online event for some more deep dive technical discussions about edge infrastructures including challenges and solutions. If you have topics you would like to discuss please add that to our planning etherpad: https://etherpad.opendev.org/p/ecg-ptg-october-2021
Also please add your name to your topic and add your contact info to the etherpad so we can keep you in the loop during the planning phase.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks and Best Regards,
Ildikó

Hi,

I’m very excited to invite you to a session with the Chameleon project to discuss how edge computing is powering education, scientific research and more! As always in the area of edge there are challenges and gaps that we need to solve together. In that sense the session will start with a presentation that we will then turn into a discussion to turn towards discussing solutions.

The session will take place on the weekly call on __September 13, at 1300 UTC / 6am Pacific__.

Please find the details of the session below.

Thanks and Best Regards,
Ildikó


Title: Chameleon: a cloud to edge infrastructure for science

Abstract: The NSF-funded Chameleon project (www.chameleoncloud.org) provides an OpenStack-based bare metal reconfigurable cloud that supports systems research, education, and emergent application projects in science. The facility has been in existence for 6+ years, and has served ~6,000 users working on a variety of projects ranging from networking, operating systems design, and security, to innovative applications in astronomy, physics, and life sciences.  Recent research trends in IoT and edge computing, as evidenced by increased numbers of project applications in those areas, made it clear that Chameleon needed to expand into the edge space. Remaining within the OpenStack framework allowed us to leverage end-user features that we developed for Chameleon, such as access via federated identity and Jupyter integration. Accordingly, we developed infrastructure called CHI at Edge that adapts Zun to provision containers on edge devices and significantly expands its capabilities to work in the edge space. The talk will describe our use case and the emergent product definition, the OpenStack adaptations we made to the current preview implementation, the directions we plan to take in our further work, as well as the ecosystem of projects and NSF infrastructure deployments leveraging this work and collaborating with us.

Folks -
Please review the session writeups.  I have 12 sessions identified from a
total of 14.  Some of them can be broken into two sessions, so I suspect we
do have enough sessions to fill all the slots at this point.

Ah ok, I see the slot numbers now. I got confused as you said 12 sessions so I was looking for 12 paragraphs and that caused my confusion. :)

Hi,

It is a friendly reminder to please mark your calendars to attend our joint session with the Chameleon project on September 13 to learn about how edge computing is becoming crucial for scientific research and academic use cases.

As part of the presentation they will be talking about their journey with OpenStack and the gaps they found to turn it into an edge platform that suits their needs. Following the presentation we will be talking about solutions and collaboration opportunities.

Please note that __the call on September 13 will happen on Zoom__ in order to be able to record the session.
Please find the dial-in information on our wiki: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Edge_Computing_Group#Meetings

I also attached a meeting invite file to this mail that you can add to your calendar as a reminder.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks and Best Regards,
Ildikó

As always in the area of edge there are challenges and gaps that we need to solve together. In that sense the session will start with a presentation that we will then turn into a discussion to turn towards discussing solutions.

> Title: Chameleon: a cloud to edge infrastructure for science
> 
> Abstract: The NSF-funded Chameleon project (www.chameleoncloud.org) provides an OpenStack-based bare metal reconfigurable cloud that supports systems research, education, and emergent application projects in science. The facility has been in existence for 6+ years, and has served ~6,000 users working on a variety of projects ranging from networking, operating systems design, and security, to innovative applications in astronomy, physics, and life sciences.  Recent research trends in IoT and edge computing, as evidenced by increased numbers of project applications in those areas, made it clear that Chameleon needed to expand into the edge space. Remaining within the OpenStack framework allowed us to leverage end-user features that we developed for Chameleon, such as access via federated identity and Jupyter integration. Accordingly, we developed infrastructure called CHI at Edge that adapts Zun to provision containers on edge devices and significantly expands its capabilities to work in the edge space. The talk will describe our use case and the emergent product definition, the OpenStack adaptations we made to the current preview implementation, the directions we plan to take in our further work, as well as the ecosystem of projects and NSF infrastructure deployments leveraging this work and collaborating with us.
