摘要： An architecture to enable verification, ranking, and identification of respective edge service properties and associated service level agreement (SLA) properties, such as in an edge cloud or other edge computing environment, is disclosed. In an example, management and use of service information for an edge service includes: providing SLA information for an edge service to an operational device, for accessing an edge service hosted in an edge computing environment, with the SLA information providing reputation information for computing functions of the edge service according to an identified SLA; receiving a service request for use of the computing functions of the edge service, under the identified SLA; requesting, from the edge service, performance of the computing functions of the edge service according to the service request; and tracking the performance of the computing functions of the edge service according to the service request and compliance with the identified SLA.

摘要： Methods, apparatus, systems and machine-readable storage media of an edge computing device which is enabled to access and select the use of local or remote acceleration resources for edge computing processing is disclosed. In an example, an edge computing device obtains first telemetry information that indicates availability of local acceleration circuitry to execute a function, and obtains second telemetry that indicates availability of a remote acceleration function to execute the function. An estimated time (and cost or other identifiable or estimateable considerations) to execute the function at the respective location is identified. The use of the local acceleration circuitry or the remote acceleration resource is selected based on the estimated time and other appropriate factors in relation to a service level agreement.

摘要： A device of a service coordinating entity includes communications circuitry to communicate with a plurality of access networks via a corresponding plurality of network function virtualization (NFV) instances, processing circuitry, and a memory device. The processing circuitry is to perform operations to monitor stored performance metrics for the plurality of NFV instances. Each of the NFV instances is instantiated by a corresponding scheduler of a plurality of schedulers on a virtualization infrastructure of the service coordinating entity. A plurality of stored threshold metrics is retrieved, indicating a desired level for each of the plurality of performance metrics. A threshold condition is detected for at least one of the performance metrics for an NFV instance of the plurality of NFV instances, based on the retrieved plurality of threshold metrics. A hardware resource used by the NFV instance to communicate with an access network is adjusted based on the detected threshold condition.

摘要： Methods, systems, and use cases for geofence-based edge service control and authentication are discussed, including an orchestration system with memory and at least one processing circuitry coupled to the memory. The processing circuitry is configured to perform operations to obtain, from a plurality of connectivity nodes providing edge services, physical location information, and resource availability information associated with each of the plurality of connectivity nodes. An edge-to-edge location graph (ELG) is generated based on the physical location information and the resource availability information, the ELG indicating a subset of the plurality of connectivity nodes that are available for executing a plurality of services associated with an edge workload. The connectivity nodes are provisioned with the ELG and a workflow execution plan to execute the plurality of services, the workflow execution plan including metadata with a geofence policy. The geofence policy specifies geofence restrictions associated with each of the plurality of services.

摘要： Systems and techniques for intelligent data forwarding in edge networks are described herein. A request may be received from an edge user device for a service via a first endpoint. A time value may be calculated using a timestamp of the request. Motion characteristics may be determined for the edge user device using the time value. A response to the request may be transmitted to a second endpoint based on the motion characteristics.

摘要： Technologies for load balancing on a network device in an edge network are disclosed. According to one embodiment, a network device receives, in the edge network, a request to access a function. The request includes one or more performance requirements. The network device identifies, as a function of an evaluation of the performance requirements and on monitored properties of each device associated with the network device, one or more of the devices to service the request. The network device selects one of the identified devices according to a load balancing policy and sends the request to the selected device.

摘要： Methods and apparatus for scale out hardware-assisted tracing schemes for distributed and scale-out applications. In connection with execution of one or more applications using a distributed processing environment including multiple compute nodes, telemetry and tracing data are obtained using hardware-based logic on the compute nodes. Processes associated with applications are identified, as well as the compute nodes on which instances of the processes are executed. Process instances are associated with process application space identifiers (PASIDs), while processes used for an application are associating with a global group identifier (GGID) that serves as an application ID. The PASIDs and GGIDs are used to store telemetry and/or tracing data on the compute nodes and/or forward such data to a tracing server in a manner that enables telemetry and/or tracing data to be aggregated on an application basis. Telemetry and/or tracing data may be obtained from processors on the compute nodes, and (optionally) additional elements such as network interface controllers (NICs). Tracing data may also be obtained from switches used for forwarding data between processes.

摘要： Various aspects of methods, systems, and use cases include coordinating actions at an edge device based on power production in a distributed edge computing environment. A method may include identifying a long-term service level agreement (SLA) for a component of an edge device, and determining a list of resources related to the component using the long-term SLA. The method may include scheduling a task for the component based on the long-term SLA, a current battery level at the edge device, a current energy harvest rate at the edge device, or an amount of power required to complete the task. A resource of the list of resources may be used to initiate the task, such as according to the scheduling.
