In this Edge Field Day Showcase, ZEDEDA’s Consulting Solutions Architect, Manny Calero, demonstrates how the ZEDEDA platform addresses the diverse needs of edge computing workloads. While Kubernetes is ideal for large, complex, and distributed applications, Docker Compose is often a better fit for smaller, lightweight, and resource-constrained edge sites. The ZEDEDA platform’s key strength lies in its flexibility, allowing users to deploy both legacy VMs and modern containerized applications side-by-side on the same edge node. This provides a unified orchestration and management experience, offering a simple solution for a repeatable, scalable, and secure edge architecture. This presentation includes a demo of the ZEDEDA platform to deploy Docker Compose workloads to multiple edge nodes, highlighting features like zero-touch provisioning and API-driven automation with Terraform.
Solutions Architect Kris Clark presents the ZEDEDA Edge Kubernetes Service. While Kubernetes is complex, it is essential for highly scalable, distributed, and complex applications. Kris provides a brief overview of the Kubernetes service’s architecture, emphasizing its ease of use and its ability to integrate with familiar developer tools like kubectl and Git repositories. The demo shows how to quickly create a Kubernetes cluster and deploy applications from the ZEDEDA marketplace or from a custom Helm chart. This presentation concludes with a discussion about how the ZEDEDA platform provides a cohesive solution for both containerized and VM-based workloads, supporting enterprises in their digital transformation journey at the edge.
