 We welcome everyone to open at work and edge summit and today we're going to talk about your path to edge computing and a Crino open source project under Linux foundation edge So this is Kandan Kudriville TSC chair a Crino and I'm a director at AT&T and We also have Tina joining us today from on sees a co-chair for a Crino Today we're going to cover the accomplishment done by the Crino community and we also talk about what has been delivered in R3 release 3 of a Crino and The further details about the user deployments So this slide we will cover about what a Crino community has accomplished so far and many of you Already aware of a Crino community that people who have not come across a Crino community will give you a quick introduction about this community This this community started in 2018 under a Linux foundation and this community is you know grown very big within a short time time period and this community delivers open source based edge solutions and The community has about 30 plus blueprints, which we will talk about that in a minute What is the blueprints and what the solutions are all about and? Crino blueprints are globally deployed across several ledger use cases and in the industries and The blueprints and the solutions they are all tested in the user labs and this is very important for any open-source community and especially this community puts a lot of effort in testing the blueprints and Ensuring that the quality of the blueprints by testing it so the community has more than 10 plus user labs and and the one community lab to test all this blueprints and The blueprints covers a wide areas of use cases that including 5g Mac AI at edge Cloud gaming at edge Android and cloud micro Mac and these are the couple of key areas But we will touch base on you know like other areas that the community has delivered the blueprints as well The other key aspect is that ensuring that there is a standard apis that the community can support and The community works with a lot of upstream and downstream community to ensure there is a standardization of apis So the community already published your weight paper and we are publishing another weight paper And there is also work currently going on in terms of developing edge apis which can be supported by the blueprints The other key aspect that community has accomplished is automation of validating the blueprint So when we talk about several software and hardware integration goes into your blueprint It's very important that each layer being tested for a functionality and quality and security And it's also important that the integration of all these components comes together to have a production deployable solution So that's what this community has focused on and The community does a lot of outreach even to ensure that People understand what is required from the edge computing and what this community is delivering and we will talk about some of those aspect in a few minutes So you may have a question where is a grino fits in in terms of LF Linux foundation edge and a grino community Delivers end-to-end blueprint meaning that integrating projects within the LF edge and components, you know across multiple other open source communities And this picture you can actually see that a grino is actually spread Across all this, you know different varieties of edge deployments across, you know different industries either it is a deployment in a customer location or in a cell tower or in in a public building or it could be a you know connected car and Right into the you know centralized data centers that that can actually go in so there is a wide spectrum of blueprints that the community creates and Delivers to support a different varieties of use cases and the other projects in LF edge, you know like a focus on either IOT and Specific areas of you know, like edge itself and the grino really brings that together To provide a cohesive solution for the user So who's been involved in a grino and this is actually a very simplified slide that you can actually go to the Linux foundation edge website and the way you can actually find all the companies So there's only listing the premier members that has been participating in Linux foundation edge and the Linux foundation edge Is a number law project in which a grino is one and a grino is actually an impact project So there's a three category mainly within the Linux foundation edge there are incoming project those are usually called at large and Those are stage one project then you have a growth project and the growth project are basically, you know Like they are they are actually developing Concepts and stuff and there are mature projects and a grino being one founding project and it is an impact to stage three and The Ajax foundry is another project on the impact stage So this picture is to actually extend the the concept that we talked on the previous slide and this shows actually how many people are contributing to a grino and There are 40 plus companies are engaged across the globe in developing different varieties of edge solution like IOT telco 5g core and the universal CP provider access edge st van and other other edge solution as well and We have about a 75 percentage of LF edge of premium members has been participating So that's that's very you know, like I was stating about the 40 plus company So you don't need to be a member to contribute and use the grino project deliverables that including blueprints and the solutions provided by the community and You can come and participate as a non-member as well But being a member would give you a voice within the community and also supports the Linux Foundation goals So this slide I want to touch base on before we deep diving into what the R3 blueprints We just want to quickly touch base on you know, what the blueprints are about and this slides articulates it why we created a blueprint concept within a grino and The why why this is really working with the respect of the community The major problem that before a grino was there are a lot of open sources and you know There are Kubernetes and CNCF and open stack and then you have a operating system then there is a hardware and There are security tools and then there is operational tools that are CI CD tools There are so many components together, but there is no place where things all come together to provide a solution for the edge computing and that's where a grino blueprint comes into the context where The blueprint is not just a paperwork. This is the this is where you know, like a code is get integrated and It is driven by a use case and again, this community is very focused on the edge computing use cases so it is again edge use case based and It has to provide you the full integration and an end to end solution that you can actually take it and Deploy in your production or in a lab or in your production trial so that's the full integration is a key part of the a grino blueprint and The other aspect is a proven and tested by the community This is very important because you know what you can always have in the integration But if it is not fully tested and if it is not fully proven then it is very hard to deploy in production so the community take the code integrates it and it takes a lot of You know upstream software, but also develop software within the community to bring things together What we call as a glue code that basically brings everything together Then communities life cycle support. That's very important because once you deliver the blueprint You know, they need to be a continue to support to the blueprint and that's where the community comes in and again The production quality that's what this community is thrive for to really provide solutions that are really Available to deploy in production so what's the benefit of this concept is, you know low cost for the users and Because it's fully integrated and you can actually deploy this in a large scale and zero touch provisioning That's a key mantra for this blueprint Full automation of the blueprint and industry adoption Because you want to try out a solution whether you need to know whether the solution is something Can be production deployed and you can see who else is actually using in the industry So that's a key part and also the hardware is very important part because you know, you can have a software Certified on a one specific set of hardware Then it doesn't work on another set of hardware that you don't you really want that to be working on For that particular edge of use case So the community declares that where the thing actually goes into the blueprint that either hardware software CICD and other tools as well. So that's the important aspect of the blueprint So a cranial is free. So the has been released a couple of weeks before in August 12th 2020 and this is a third release and as I mentioned there were about 20 blueprints, which I'm going to talk in a minute and these blueprints provides you a wide spectrum of edge solutions and The key is it's providing a solution for a majority of the edge of use cases And that's a cool part of cool part to it is that you know If you want to try for example connect a car or a mech You have a solution already delivered by a cranial and again, these solutions are all tested as I mentioned either in the Crano community lab or in the user lab To provide a very very stable solution This is a one more view of the slide of people contributions that has been received in the Crano release 3 and You can see there are wide spectrum of contribution Some contributions are based on the code that is given Are contributed towards bringing multiple open source together or either the code development within the Crano community to deliver this blueprint? But the other aspect is like documentation because that's very important because most of the open source communities They create open sources, but they never give you a best document And that's what this community really best at is really providing you a good document that explains you know the installation procedure and troubleshooting and what went inside the integration Specifically the hardware the software and how it is being tested in the community and it also publishes the results of the testing So that's another cool thing to see you know like you know how how this community has integrated the whole thing together So that's the important key aspect of it. So the people can see it again. This is just a sample Of what people has contributed. You can go to elephanalytics.io. This is a beta version for a Crano But they are working in getting you know more information incorporated, but even with the beta version you can see The contribution has been coming into the Crano community So this is a one of the key slide that I want to highlight and walk through So that people can understand What blueprints has been delivered. So there are two color coded blueprints here One is the r3 new blueprints which are color coded as a blue color And then there is a green color where those are r1 and r2 blueprint which got an enhancement or Our life lifetime support for that particular blueprint So you can see that in the green color So with the spectrum of you know micro mac which goes into a you know a very remote edge and then you have blueprints which are IEC network cloud and kni blueprints which are regional data center or centralized centralized data center deployment blueprints and then you have something in the middle blueprints to cover Smart factories or buildings or enterprises and then you also have things that goes into the central offices To support the 5g infrastructure or the application that would be supported with the 5g For example, there is a cloud gaming. There is a ai at the edge which provides the security Then you have an icn blueprint which is primarily focused on the infrastructure to In to support the infrastructure of the telco So you can see the white spectrum of the blueprints the other aspect with respect to this blueprints Is that there could be a little bit of variation of the different deployment with the hardware And we call them as a family where you know the different configuration of the same blueprint has been applied for a different varieties of deployment And this is this view is more like a family of blueprints, but within it, you know You can also see a little bit of variation that allows you to Deploy with a different hardware or it could be a different software version and stuff like that But again, these blueprints are community tested and the community did a good job in reviewing the testing ensuring The blueprint is satisfying the use case and it has enough integration points and enough security tools and ensuring that these are production deployable and that's the beauty of this Whole spectrum of the blueprints is that you can take it and deploy it in your lab or even in the production So you may be wondering, uh, what else the community is trying to do in release for this is very important to see There's a lot going on in the community which uh, uh, quickly kina would talk about it. But in this slide, uh, I will cover What are the key area that the community is focused on again? This is not All all the work that community is going to focus on but the key areas that the community would focus on in the release for So the number one is a warren Specification you may hear about the warren community that is doing a disruption on the technology for the ran and that community is creating a specification and the agrino community is working closely with the warren community in creating a blueprint and automation to test the blueprint along with the integration points that are mentioned by the warren specification and agrino community would deliver blueprints for that And then we have a public cloud edge. This is another key area that community is focused on So this is where the public cloud being deployed in telco And the common interfaces are required for the telco to support those public clouds, you know that including aws and google and microsoft Providing a private cloud which would actually get deployed in the the telco and community is working on standard standardizing the interfaces that are required to support that public cloud And that that work has really been contributed by many key players in the industry The the the last one is the api I think I talked about the importance of the age api and again the apis are all over the place in the industry And many communities are working on apis and we are trying to bring them together And not only just talk in the white paper not only just talk on the specification The community is striving to deliver code that actually can implement this api because that's very important And you know just by specification just by having specific words that are about api that doesn't allow us to Make use of those api So the intention here is that the blueprints provides you the age api Which can be a standard across all the blueprints and also common framework that can be used across You know like multiple communities together So there is a good amount of work currently going on with a lot of upstream community that including orm cncf And open stack we have been coordinating with them to create this Into an acryno age apis And with that i'm going to hand over to tina and tina. Please go ahead and actually Take up from here Hello everyone Hi, this is tina. I'm the acryno tsc co-chair and also I work in arm as enterprise architect so Thank you. Ken then talking about the most beautiful place of acryno is to Ready for deployment. So i'm going to share some of the deployment examples You can see from this picture. There is a blueprint under the age blueprint family named School education video security monitoring. You see the beautiful faces here And so with this blueprint Has been deployed in beijing shanghai hangzhou and many other cities in china The security of children have been assured So based on this video security monitoring Deploying the mat in the data center and also the surveillance cameras in some of the key areas of the public security Also, there's a blueprint called eye vix which is for robot taxi robot bus and Autonomous vehicle all kinds of like a widely parking out of this deployment It has been deployed in chiangshan city hongnan province And there are also several cities in the process of deploying. This is uh, very promising I know there remain more than 25 or 30 robot taxi running on chiangshan city today And it gave a lot of convenience to the city to the community and help those Disabled and people who need such services And this also We use the mac architecture also the already edge open source as IAS in this blueprint How do I flick? Okay. Thank you All right. The next deployment example I would like to mention is the k&i blueprint family. It's the kubernetes network infrastructure Sorry kubernetes native infrastructure blueprint family There is a one blueprint called provider access edge The key message of this picture is that the end user is open air interface It's ready for the 5g and enode b deployment today Of course, it's the s a Yeah, okay. You can see Next We have all also deployed in tencent about ours, which is a microservice framework on the connective vehicle blueprint And also the arv are oriented edge stack You can see from here above the nick we use the center os And then there's a taskmaster and task node as an agent There are two kinds of applications just like a microservice cvb. It's the connective vehicle And arv are for release 2 and 3 we use the virtual classroom student and teacher as a client And we will have more new applications like tencent video and video within the wechat And the other video games Using the arv are features. So this has been proved like working with the hyperscalers and The real world deployment combination with the blueprint helps a lot to build the production and project and profit Next please This is about a telcos deployment from china mobiles and user story There are two sides on the left side. You can see this is an angel application edge cloud practice It's successfully released in the acrylon release 3 So today there were many video games they may require a lot of memory And a lot of computing resource Not everybody has the right form Or with a lot of memories to play those very advanced games So with this above the gpu on servers About kernel You're on the open gl which will deal with the the graphic very smoothly in this case Normal users can enjoy the Other ones against just on their phone. It's called like a cloud phones On the right hand side. This is Something called the ovs dpdk running for the smanics Which will do the hardware acceleration for the deployment of Their storage use cases and also the arvii use cases You can see here. You just see this application service there Doing the container virtual machine and the bare metal side And we do the telco call and mobile edge call smoothly insert on top of this ovs dpdk So this is about the telemobiles and user stories Okay, what's next in acrylon? The second half we actually only have a white cube But we talked about kind of in the year or physical year So we will have further collaborations with cross-elf edge projects like eve flash They have a landing blueprint, which is for the aut workload We also there are several blueprints already integrated the edge x found g and there are more Like open horizon and by toe a beta and the others And also we work with downstream Like some certification Communities we work with them and also the upstream like the oran cncf and cntt And we work with them very well We take everything upstream first If not, they say okay acrylon you can build some future project We'll build future project within acrylon There are more new blueprints and enhancement to the existing blueprints The new blueprints kind of mentioned that we have the public cloud edge interface to kubi edge service Blueprint and the private lte 5g and also the alo t Blueprints there are many more And for the enhancement Of the existing blueprints, they will add more new applications for validation Some of them were required for the maturity review To enhance the functionality and automation of edge workloads like the cloud native part We will integrate some service mesh functions like is still Network service mesh m y those things Which is very popular and used widely And you may wonder how can you get engaged into acrylon? From here you go to the elf edge website under the project you can find acrylon More we have the tsc course Tuesday and thursday 7 a.m And we have the blueprint projects course And we have technical community course if you have your new idea For example for blockchain or edge computing or for the Cloud storage edge computing you're all welcome and there are many made-in lists with the tsc technical discussion And also the blueprint each blueprint So we have a blueprint in this that you can add a hashtag for each blueprint like hashtag k and i Hashtag icn hashtag icc etc So we are a very friendly and open community We look forward to working with you and welcome more people joining us And now we are open for questions
