Objective 2 – Maximize robustness of cloud/edge compute continuum
To tackle the heterogeneity and the “liquidity” of the edge resource pool environment with the support of an adaptive edge/cloud continuum that will virtually “follow” the users. It is assumed that the dependency on resources found “by serendipity” will affect the provided availability and reliability. To mitigate these issues, ACCORDION need to use the public cloud as a “capacitor”, shifting computation and data to it in an if-needed basis, creating an edge/cloud continuum. However, this exposes the NextGen applications to many perils including increased risk and privacy vulnerabilities.
