FR-MC-005 — Edge Deployments

Go to Crucible Multi-Cloud Management Requirements

Statement

Crucible SHALL perform Edge Deployments.

Derived From

This requirement derives from:

Crucible System Requirements Specification, Version 1.1 Draft, Functional Requirements, FR-MC-005The Original Requirement states:

The system shall support edge deployments.[C1]

FR-MC-005:

Replaces The system with the defined system name CrucibleChanges shall to the established uppercase normative form SHALLReplaces the weak verb support with the observable behavior performCapitalizes Edge Deployments as the named deployment capabilityNo other substantive normalization is required.

Rationale

An Edge Deployment places computing capabilities near a source or consumer of data, an operational process, a physical location, or another location where local processing provides an architectural benefit.

An Edge Deployment can involve:

This requirement establishes Edge Deployment behavior without prescribing:

The deployment subjectsThe target Edge EnvironmentAn edge platformA device classA Cloud ProviderA network architectureAn orchestration mechanismA connectivity modelDisconnected operationAir-gapped operationResource constraintsSynchronization behaviorSeparate requirements, architecture specifications, workflows, or policies define those subjects and behaviors.

Applies To

This requirement applies to:

Edge DeploymentsEdge deployment workflows

Verification

Verification confirms that:

An Edge Deployment is selected for testingThe target of the tested deployment exhibits the characteristics defined for an Edge DeploymentCrucible performs the tested Edge DeploymentThe deployed subjects can be identified in the target environmentThe observed behavior demonstrates Edge Deployment

Notes for Editors

This requirement page retains the stable requirement identifier FR-MC-005.

This page is a leaf requirement page and omits a trailing :start from its namespace.

The Statement preserves the approved source intent by requiring Crucible to perform Edge Deployments.

Do not treat Edge Deployment as synonymous with deployment to a Disconnected Environment or Air-Gapped Environment.

Do not add specific deployment subjects, an Edge Environment, dependency capture, disconnected operation, synchronization, resource constraints, network isolation, platform, device, Provider, or connectivity obligations unless the controlling requirement changes through an approved requirements process.
