Integrating I/O and compute devices at edge locations requires automated processes to work at large scale. This session will cover open source tools that support device lifecycles, from secure onboarding and discovery, through monitoring, maintenance, and use in production. We'll survey CNCF, LF Edge, and Eclipse projects designed to extend the cloud to inter-operate with edge devices and I/O; for example, one CNCF project, Akri, discovers edge devices and exposes them as Kubernetes resources. The K8s IoT Edge working group focuses on using Kubernetes as a tool to support applications running on, communicating with, or using information gathered from edge devices. There are opportunities to contribute to the evolution of Kubernetes to better serve edge use cases. We will close with details on how you can get involved with the community effort to help this happen.
