SuperEdge is an open-source container management system for edge computing to manage compute resources and container applications in multiple edge regions. These resources and applications, in the current approach, are managed as one single Kubernetes cluster. A native Kubernetes cluster can be easily converted to a SuperEdge cluster. SuperEdge extends the powerful container orchestration and scheduling capabilities of Kubernetes to the edge. It makes non-intrusive enhancements to Kubernetes and is fully compatible with all Kubernetes APIs and resources. Kubernetes users can leverage SuperEdge easily for edge environments with minimal learning. When the network connection between the edge and the cloud is unstable, or the edge node is offline, the node can still work independently. But at this time, edge node can't do anything associated with writing operation, such as create/delete/update.
