Solution Overview

Users use the AtlasEdge through the Huawei Cloud Intelligent EdgeFabric (IEF) or a data center (FusionDirector) to manage and deploy edge nodes and update service applications, implementing collaborative service processing.
  • IEF offers a complete edge computing solution, extends cloud applications to the edge and associates edge and cloud data by managing edge nodes, and also provides unified on-cloud O&M capabilities, such as device/application management and log collection. For details about IEF, see IEF documents.
  • FusionDirector implements centralized O&M of edge nodes. It provides management capabilities, such as device configuration, firmware upgrade, device management, and OS deployment, through the life cycle, helping O&M personnel improve O&M efficiency and reduce O&M costs. For details about FusionDirector, see the FusionDirector Operation Guide.
Figure 1 Architecture for application deployment

A container is a service application running on edge nodes. When a container is deployed, the model file and image file are packaged and deployed together. To update the model file, you need to update the entire container.
