Overview of Challenges and Solutions for Orchestrating Applications to Multiple Data Centers and Edge Clusters

Explore the challenges and solutions for orchestrating applications across multiple data centers and edge clusters in this comprehensive conference talk. Delve into the complexities of deploying, monitoring, and managing complex applications composed of multiple microservices across various clusters. Learn about criteria-based deployment, geo-location replication, cross-cluster dependencies, and secure inter-cluster communication. Discover the importance of automation in reducing operational costs and achieving zero-touch deployments. Examine the landscape of available solutions, including Kubedge, ArgoCD, Karmada, and EMCO, with an in-depth analysis of each. Gain insights into geo-distributed computing trends, edge computing, multi-cloud challenges, workload customization, connectivity requirements, and operational considerations. Explore use cases and practical applications of these solutions, particularly focusing on the Edge Multi Cluster Orchestrator (EMCO).
