Applications are placed at the edge to be outage-resilient and provide blazing-fast data processing. Now is the time to seamlessly extend deployment and monitoring capabilities to the edge. With their application orchestration platform for the edge, Avassa unlocks delightfully easy container application management at your edge that meets the expectations of a self-service developer experience set by the central cloud. In this video, Avassa gives an introduction to the platform and how application teams and platform/IT teams benefit from using it.

The Avassa platform provides a broad set of features for IT- and platform teams tasked with providing distributed infrastructure for application teams that need to run container applications at the on-site edge. In this demo, Avassa shows how to onboard and configure distributed hosts into site-clusters for application placement and deployment purposes. We take a look at monitoring the health of the constituent sites at the cluster- and host level. We perform administrative tasks on the distributed clusters including observing resource consumption for planning purposes and scheduled maintenance activities without impacting application availability.

Avassa’s platform helps application teams deploy and update containerized edge applications. With applications running in many locations, they need distributed care and control. In this video, Avassa demonstrates how to deploy and update container applications at the on-site edge. They use a declarative model to define, version, and place applications based on constraint-based placement on both site- and host level. By applying well-understood concepts like versioning and label-matching the need for manual work is radically reduced for managing applications at scale.

An important aspect of business continuity is the performance and availability of the constituent edge container applications. Enterprises must focus on how to monitor the applications at the edge proactively. Meanwhile, edge monitoring is different from monitoring applications in the central cloud in several ways. In this demo, Avassa shows how their edge container application management platform provides edge native support for monitoring and observability. They walk us through use cases such as failed upgrades, attempting to deploy to disconnected sites, and how to ensure consistency in application operations.
