Understand how to use K3s and k3OS for different use cases and discover best practices for building an edge computing system
Key Features
- A guide to implementing an edge computing environment
- Reduce latency and costs for real-time applications running at the edge
- Find stable and relevant cloud native open source software to complement your edge environments
Book Description
Edge computing is a way of processing information near the source of data instead of processing it on data centers in the cloud. In this way, edge computing can reduce latency when data is processed, improving the user experience on real-time data visualization for your applications. Using K3s, a light-weight Kubernetes and k3OS, a K3s-based Linux distribution along with other open source cloud native technologies, you can build reliable edge computing systems without spending a lot of money.
In this book, you will learn how to design edge computing systems with containers and edge devices using sensors, GPS modules, WiFi, LoRa communication and so on. You will also get to grips with different use cases and examples covered in this book, how to solve common use cases for edge computing such as updating your applications using GitOps, reading data from sensors and storing it on SQL and NoSQL databases. Later chapters will show you how to connect hardware to your edge clusters, predict using machine learning, and analyze images with computer vision. All the examples and use cases in this book are designed to run on devices using 64-bit ARM processors, using Raspberry Pi devices as an example.
By the end of this book, you will be able to use the content of these chapters as small pieces to create your own edge computing system.
What you will learn
- Configure k3OS and K3s for development and production scenarios
- Package applications into K3s for shipped-node scenarios
- Deploy in occasionally connected scenarios, from one node to one million nodes
- Manage GitOps for applications across different locations
- Use open source cloud native software to complement your edge computing systems
- Implement observability event-driven and serverless edge applications
- Collect and process data from sensors at the edge and visualize it into the cloud
Who this book is for
This book is for engineers (developers and/or operators) seeking to bring the cloud native benefits of GitOps and Kubernetes to the edge. Anyone with basic knowledge of Linux and containers looking to learn Kubernetes using examples applied to edge computing and hardware systems will benefit from this book.

Store description
**Please note our transit times are from the date of dispatch.** We first started out as “The Paperback Exchange,” a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become “PBShop.” This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first purchase with us, or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.…
