Overview of this book

Enriched with insights from a hyperscaler’s perspective, Edge Computing Patterns for Solution Architects will prepare you for seamless collaboration with communication service providers (CSPs) and device manufacturers and help you in making the pivotal choice between cloud-out and edge-in approaches. This book presents industry-specific use cases that shape tailored edge solutions, addressing non-functional requirements to unlock the potential of standard edge components. As you progress, you’ll navigate the archetypes of edge solution architecture from the basics to network edge and end-to-end configurations. You’ll also discover the weight of data and the power of automation for scale and immerse yourself in the edge mantra of low latency and high bandwidth, absorbing invaluable do's and don'ts from real-world experiences. Recommended practices, honed through practical insights, have also been added to guide you in mastering the dynamic realm of edge computing. By the end of this book, you'll have built a comprehensive understanding of edge concepts and terminology and be ready to traverse the evolving edge computing landscape.

Definitions

From a network function (NF) to a DSP, a few definitions are in order before proceeding.

One or more communication connections between different computing devices comprise a network. An NF, as we know it, is the transmission of data between those physical devices while adhering to certain rules. For instance:

  • Distribution of data to a pool of servers by a load balancer is an example of an NF
  • Filtering of data and deciding which data is safe to consume by a firewall is another example of an NF

As the name suggests, a virtual NF (VNF) is a virtualized version where the NF is implemented using software.

Gartner (https://www.gartner.com/en/information-technology/glossary/csp-communications-service-provider) defines a CSP as someone who offers telecommunications services leveraging the landline or wireless network infrastructure. While CSP is a generic term, you will hear internet SP (ISP), which provides internet services, or telecommunication SP (TSP...
