More about the Edge Agent
The Open Horizon Edge Agent resides at every Edge device or server. In a device, it can execute either as a standalone process in Linux or optionally can be hosted as a container in Docker or Podman.
The Agent must be run as a Container on Docker when running on macOS.
Likewise, the Agent must be run as a container on Kubernetes on Edge servers.
On Edge servers, an Agent can be configured with either a cluster scope or a namespace scope. Cluster-scoped Agents can manage the deployment of services to any namespace in that Kubernetes cluster.
If you need to limit and control namespace isolation, for different tenants of that cluster, for example, a namespace-scoped Agents can only deploy services to the namespace to which it belongs. However, you can have multiple namespace-scoped Agents in the same Kubernetes cluster – each associated with a different namespace.
While the Agent is quite small, it has a significant role in the Open Horizon...
