Creating and Implementing Updates on a Multi-Node Raspberry Pi Kubernetes Clusters

Companies are embracing digital transformation, Industry 4.0, industrial automation, smart manufacturing, and all the advanced use cases that these initiatives provide, as we saw in the previous chapter. As a result, the importance of Kubernetes, edge, and cloud collaboration to drive intelligent business decisions is becoming clear. Kubernetes is steadily becoming the go-to platform for edge computing and extends the benefits of cloud-native technologies to the edge, allowing for the flexible and automated management of applications that span a disaggregated cloud environment. In this and the following chapters, we will be looking at implementation aspects of common edge computing applications using the MicroK8s Kubernetes platform.

Reiterating the points that we discussed in the previous chapter, Canonical MicroK8s (https://microk8s.io/) is a powerful, Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF...
