Overview

Edge clouds are located at close proximity to end users. Typical deployment locations are within the access networks or at the boundary of access networks. In some deployments, they can be within the customer premises (e.g., home; enterprise; factory floor; vehicles including trains, planes, private cars). The core thrusts of edge clouds for applications are low latency, high bandwidth, and trusted computing and storage. Various edge cloud architectures have already emerged from different communities and potentially can be plugged into the ONAP architecture for service orchestration. The group analyzes the orchestration requirements of services over various edge clouds and how these requirements impact ONAP components in terms of data collection, processing, policy management, resource management, control loop models, security, as well as application & network function deployment and control.
