 +
 +===== Discussion =====
 +
 +An Edge Deployment is an [[public:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:i:infrastructure_deployment|Infrastructure Deployment]] that deploys one or more identified deployment subjects to an [[public:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:e:edge_environment|Edge Environment]].
 +
 +Deployment subjects may include:
 +
 +  * [[public:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:i:infrastructure_resource|Infrastructure Resources]]
 +  * [[public:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:v:virtual_machine|Virtual Machines]]
 +  * [[public:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:k:kubernetes_cluster|Kubernetes Clusters]]
 +  * [[public:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:c:containerized_workload|Containerized Workloads]]
 +  * [[public:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:p:platform_service|Platform Services]]
 +  * Configuration
 +  * Security controls
 +  * Monitoring capabilities
 +  * Operational data
 +
 +An Edge Deployment may need to account for:
 +
 +  * Limited network bandwidth
 +  * Intermittent connectivity
 +  * Restricted external connectivity
 +  * Limited computing capacity
 +  * Limited storage capacity
 +  * Local security controls
 +  * Physical access constraints
 +  * Local operational authority
 +  * Dependency availability
 +  * Local update and rollback procedures
 +
 +An Edge Deployment differs from a cloud deployment:
 +
 +  * An Edge Deployment targets an Edge Environment
 +  * A cloud deployment targets an Infrastructure Environment supplied through cloud capabilities
 +
 +An Edge Deployment may also form part of a Hybrid-Cloud Deployment when related deployment subjects operate across cloud and Edge Environments.
 +
 +An Edge Deployment does not necessarily imply disconnected or air-gapped operation.

 +===== Note =====
 +
 +The applicable deployment specification should identify:
 +
 +  * The target Edge Environment
 +  * The deployment subjects
 +  * The applicable environment constraints
 +  * Required dependencies
 +  * Required configuration
 +  * Applicable [[public:99_annexes:annex-b-terms-and-definitions:a:acceptance_criteria|Acceptance Criteria]]
 +  * Required deployment validation
 +  * Required rollback behavior
 +
 +The term does not prescribe a device class, edge platform, orchestration technology, provider, network architecture, or connectivity model.
 +
 +===== Example =====
 +
 +Crucible performs an Edge Deployment by deploying a Containerized Workload, its configuration, and required Platform Services to an Edge Environment located within a remote industrial facility.
