Follow up of Robotics Distributed System based on Kubernetes (really old, but i believe there are many interests how to manage ROS and ROS 2 application with Kubernetes.)
Hi All,
(we have been working on this with CNCF for a long time) we recently added the new feature in KubeEdge, called “Resource Upgrade Control at Edge”. i understand that this is not only for ROS 2 but other IoT workloads controlled by Kuberentes and KubeEdge, this is one of the differentiating feature developed for ROS 2 application workloads.
This feature lets you control when and how resources are upgraded on each edge node, giving full flexibility over deployment timing under Kubernetes Cluster. That means for edge AI, robots, drones and EVs, you can now coordinate updates safely and precisely — no more unintentional service interruptions or synchronization issues.
Each edge node can control the upgrade timing at edge with Kubernetes even with rolling upgrade policy !
Please take a look how this feature works before and after:
we also work on other projects to un-gap the boundary between cloud and edge, that are really related to robot and robotics application.
i will allocate some time to summarize our activity and share the update including all the development some time later.
Happy ROSing!
Tomoya
