Abstract
Resource management for geo-distributed infrastructures is challenging due to the scarcity and non-uniformity of edge resources, as well as the high client mobility and workload surges inherent to situation awareness applications. Due to their centralized nature, state-of-the-art schedulers that work well in datacenters lack the performance and feature requirements of such applications. We present OneEdge, a hybrid control plane that enables autonomous decision-making at edge sites for localized, rapid single-site application deployment. Edge sites handle mobility, churn, and load spikes, by cooperating with a centralized controller that allows coordinated multi-site scheduling and dynamic reconfiguration.
