Edge Server Middleware#

  • FIDO Device Onboarding, an automatic onboarding protocol for IoT devices. Permits late binding of device credentials, so that one manufactured device may onboard, without modification, to many different IoT platforms.

  • Intel® Smart Edge Open, a software toolkit for building edge platforms. It speeds up development of edge solutions that host network functions alongside AI, media processing, and security workloads with reference solutions optimized for common use cases powered by a Certified Kubernetes* cloud native stack.

  • kube-proxy, the Kubernetes* network proxy that runs on each node. This component is part of Intel® Smart Edge Open. This reflects services as defined in the Kubernetes* API on each node and can do simple TCP, UDP, and SCTP stream forwarding or round robin TCP, UDP, and SCTP forwarding across a set of backends. Service cluster IPs and ports are currently found through Docker* links-compatible environment variables specifying ports opened by the service proxy. There is an optional addon that provides cluster DNS for these cluster IPs. You must create a service with the apiserver API to configure the proxy.
