Level Setting the Cloud Native Edge: Definitions and Core Principles
summary
Claims that edge will be four times the cloud and hold 75% of data by 2025 lead to a concrete scale example: 7,500 sites × 1,000 IoT devices = 7.5 million endpoints to manage. The recommended stack is a lightweight distro (k3s), a minimal container-friendly OS, and declarative management via GitOps to operate tens of thousands of downstream clusters. The far edge runs on customer-owned IP and racks, the near edge sits in telco-controlled demarcations, and the emerging ocari work targets the tiny fixed-function devices.
