Summary
The success of deploying your Edge solution in production will be greatly enhanced if you understand the key roles, responsibilities, and proven enterprise architecture principles of other successful Edge projects. In this chapter, we provided you with some examples of the infrastructure typically employed in other Edge solutions. Then, we outlined the key roles and responsibilities that build on and extend those found in successful cloud-native solutions. Finally, we outlined the most important best-practice enterprise architecture principles that will be essential for you to factor into your project.
In the next chapter, we will delve deeper into the various container platforms that you may use in your Edge solution –Docker, Podman, and Kubernetes. We will explore their distinctions and the trade-offs each offers for different Edge computing situations.
