Abstract:

Cloud native computing, featured by low-cost container technology, well fits edge computing.It was proposed to apply cloud native computing to make edge computing resource management and control transparent to application development and operation.Compared with cloud computing, edge computing resources are widely distributed, highly heterogeneous, and fragmented, which called for collaborative resource management and control.According to the development status of cloud native related technologies, through the integration of future networking technologies such as soft were defined network and network function virtualization, a full-stack cloud native based edge computing architecture was proposed.Then, considering the hierarchical characteristics of containers, a low-overhead container deployment optimization problem for resource-limited edge computing was studied.Finally, the development challenges faced by cloud native based edge computing were discussed.

Key words: cloud native, edge computing, container, micro service
