容器构成了中间件平台的基础，可以满足平台即服务（PaaS）云的需求，其中应用程序打包和编排是关键问题。本章介绍了边缘云的架构需求，并回顾了边缘云的技术和架构。它讨论了基于容器作为打包和分发机制的边缘云参考架构的核心原则。本章为边缘云环境中的分布式集群提供了不同的存储、编排和集群管理选项。它提供了一个关于树莓派集群的实验结果报告，以验证所提出的架构解决方案。包括的设置是：一个自己构建的存储和集群编排；OpenStack存储解决方案；Docker容器编排；物联网(IoT)/传感器集成。本章还包括实际问题，如安装和管理工作，因为轻量级边缘集群意味着在偏远地区运行。
Containers form the basis of a middleware platform that suits the needs of platform‐as‐a‐service (PaaS) clouds, where application packaging and orchestration are key issues. This chapter introduces architecture requirements and review technologies and architectures for edge clouds. It discusses core principles of an edge cloud reference architecture that is based on containers as the packaging and distribution mechanism. The chapter presents different options for storage, orchestration, and cluster management for distributed clusters in edge cloud environments. It provides a report on experimental results with Raspberry Pi clusters to validate the proposed architectural solution. The settings included are: an own‐build storage and cluster orchestration; an OpenStack storage solution; Docker container orchestration; and Internet of Things (IoT)/sensor integration. The chapter also includes practical concerns such as installation and management efforts, since lightweight edge clusters are meant to be run in remote areas.
