Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of cloud computing, and more specifically, relates to a distributed edge cloud system architecture. Background technique [0002] The traditional cloud center solution consists of a large number of network resources, storage resources, and computing resources. It provides software-level (SaaS), platform-level (PaaS), database-level (DaaS), and infrastructure-level (IaaS); servers, storage, and Networks, applications, etc. all use virtualization technology to enable users to call various resources on demand. The technical solutions, storage and application resources of this kind of central cloud are all in the cloud, which brings great security risks to the storage and use of user data; and there is a time delay. Because each service request of the user is provided by the cloud, it is difficult Satisfying the needs of high real-time services is particularly obvious in the industrial field; on the other ha...

Problems solved by technology

This kind of central cloud technical solution, storage and application resources are all in the cloud, which brings great security risks to the storage and use of user data; and there is time delay, because each service request of the user is provided by the cloud, it is difficult to Meet the needs of high real-time business, especially in the industrial field; on the other hand, due to the large number of network, storage and computing resources, it requires high construction costs

[0003] With the rapid development of 5G and Internet of Things technologies, the services provided by the central cloud cannot meet the requirements of "large connection, low latency, and large bandwidth" on the terminal side; there is an urgent need to provide a core capability that integrates network, computing, storage, and application The distributed open platform provides services nearby to meet the key needs of industry digitalization in terms of agile connection, real-time business, data optimization, application intelligence, security and privacy protection; edge cloud is proposed to solve these problems, and the edge computing industry The alliance and the Industrial Internet Industry Alliance launched the "Edge Computing Reference Framework 3.0" that defines the edge computing framework, and the "Edge Computing Industry Alliance White Paper"

[0004] However, the edge cloud solutions proposed by these existing technologies still have room for improvement; in terms of security and privacy: due to the general storage and computing capabilities of the edge nodes themselves, most data is stored in the central cloud or edge data center, rather than in the user's side, out of the direct control of the user, with security risks

Although the operator solution can provide an edge data center outside the central cloud, it is highly dependent on operator resources such as base stations, and it is difficult for other users to independently deploy such solutions

In addition, the existing edge cloud framework adopts a one-layer structure near the edge of the device, including edge nodes or edge gateways to provide computing and processing capabilities. Under this architecture, tasks with high computational complexity, such as machine learning and deep learning, require Deploying edge nodes with higher computing power will make the system bloated and increase the cost; and if such complex tasks are submitted to the central cloud for processing, it will increase the communication pressure and increase the network due to Latency caused by data access and data transmission
