The EdgeNet Console is the management interface and orchestrator for the EdgeNet distributed computing platform. It serves as the central hub for managing, monitoring, and deploying nodes across the global infrastructure.
The EdgeNet Console is used by the PlanetLab testbed (https://planetlab.io) to oversee its distributed resources. It provides administrators and users with the tools necessary to maintain a healthy and efficient network of nodes.
- Node Orchestration: Managing the lifecycle of nodes, from registration to cluster integration.
- Monitoring: Real-time tracking of node health, performance metrics, and connectivity status.
- Deployment: Automating the installation of NodeManager and other essential services.
- API Provider: Hosting the RESTful API used by NodeManager for check-ins, heartbeats, and configuration updates.
NodeManager communicates directly with the EdgeNet Console to receive instructions and report its status. For more details on the communication protocol, see the Node Orchestration and API documentation.
