[Published Whitepaper] Sharpening the Edge : Overview of the LF Edge Taxonomy and Framework This original and collaborative community-driven white paper details the new LF Edge taxonomy with the goal of clarifying market confusion by breaking the continuum down based on inherent technical and logistical tradeoffs rather than using ambiguous terms. The taxonomy also comprehends a balance of interests spanning the cloud, telco, IT, OT, IoT, mobile and consumer markets.1 Executive SummaryCompanies in a wide range of vertical markets are aggressively exploring new commercialopportunities that are enabled by extending cloud computing to the edge of the network.The concept of edge computing promises exciting new revenue opportunities resultingfrom the delivery of new types of services to new types of customers, in both consumerand enterprise segments.Intended for readers interested in both the technical and business aspects of edgecomputing, this white paper introduces a set of open-source software projects hostedby the Linux Foundation (LF) and its subsidiary organization LF Edge (LFE). It outlinesthe LF Edge taxonomy and framework and describes opportunities for companies toparticipate in and benefit from these projects, accelerating the development, deploymentand monetization of edge compute applications. The paper also introduces a set ofopen-source software projects hosted by the Linux Foundation (LF) and its subsidiaryorganization LF Edge (LFE).The paper includes references to online resources associated with each project, providingdevelopers with access to a wealth of technical information as well as the open-sourcesoftware itself.2 Introduction Edge computing represents a new paradigm in which compute and storage are locatedat the edge of the network, as close as both necessary and feasible to the location wheredata is generated and consumed, and where actions are taken in the physical world. Theoptimal location of these compute resources is determined by the inherent tradeoffsbetween the benefits of centralization and decentralization.This white paper introduces the LF Edge taxonomy and the key concepts of edgecomputing, highlighting emerging use cases in telecom, industrial, enterprise andconsumer markets.The paper also provides details of eight open source edge projects hosted by The LinuxFoundation (LF) and its subsidiary LF Edge (LFE) umbrella organization. The LF is a nonprofit technology consortium founded in 2000 to standardize Linux, support its growthand promote its commercial adoption. The LF and its projects have more than 1,500corporate members from over 40 countries. The LF also benefits from over 30,000individual contributors supporting more than 200 open source projects.Founded in 2019, the mission of LF Edge is to establish an open, interoperable frameworkfor edge computing independent of hardware, silicon, cloud or operating system.Original Download URL: https://www.lfedge.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/LFedge_Whitepaper.pdf September 4, 2020
Taking Initiative Towards Open Innovation Sanil Ramachandran Staff Systems Engineer, Networks Divison, Samsung Electronics AmericaAlongside the push to quickly build, deploy and commercialize 5G networks, there has been a significant rise in industry interest towards open ecosystems over the last five years. At Samsung, it is a part of our corporate DNA to support open innovation – from Android to SmartThings, and beyond. We have always been committed to platforms that enable innovation from a broad set of companies.Building on our active leadership in initiatives including the Linux Foundation Networking (LFN), the Open Network Automation Platform (ONAP) project, and the O-RAN Alliance, we have also served as board members, project leaders and code contributors to share our knowledge and skills and help further industry goals. In these organizations, Samsung continues to share its expertise in implementing and integrating RAN interfaces as well as contributing to working products, like development, testing and strategy guidance, which ensure that network components operate effectively and efficiently. For example, Samsung’s recent participation in ONAP included contributions to the main components, the service design, the service orchestration, and policy framework, along with the testing of software for security hardening.Samsung is expanding our contributions to wireless industry forums that are advancing open networks, including joining the Open RAN Policy Coalition as a founding member. Samsung along with other technology companies came together to promote policies that will advance the adoption of open and interoperable solutions in the Radio Access Network (RAN) as a means to create innovation and expand the vendor ecosystem for advanced wireless technologies including 5G.Participating in these forums ensures that next-generation network products meet operator needs, while demonstrating the flexibility and reliability of open networks. These industry engagement activities also helped Samsung become a leader in the development of products and solutions that seamlessly integrate with a diverse ecosystem of vendors. Through collaborations with customers and ecosystem partners, Samsung is now supplying equipment to operators who are deploying multi-vendor networks in the US. Samsung’s partnerships with mobile operators deploying open networks create a deep expertise in these solutions.Samsung fully supports our customers who prefer single supplier based approaches as well as operators embracing the Open RAN philosophy and aim to deploy networks using a modular design that is not dependent upon any one supplier. Participating in multi-vendor ecosystems that leverage open interfaces is fundamental to Samsung, so taking an active role with these networking industry forums is second nature for us.* Original Post : https://www.samsung.com/global/business/networks/insights/blog/taking-initiative-towards-open-innovation/ September 4, 2020
