Cloudera Edge Management in the IoT
Who is this presentation for?
- Solution architects, application architects, and big data engineers
Level
Description
CEM is an edge-management solution for IoT and streaming use cases. CEM is made of two components—MiNiFi and Edge Flow Manager. MiNiFi is an edge agent and can be deployed into thousands of edge devices to collect data. It’s a lightweight version of NiFi and acts as a runtime at the edge to execute flow files. MiNiFi also supports TensorFlow, which allows for machine learning (ML) models to be executed at the edge.
Purnima Reddy Kuchikulla, Timothy Spann, Abdelkrim Hadjidj, and Andre Araujo explain Edge Flow Manager, a new component within Cloudera Edge Management (CEM). It’s an edge-management hub that manages, controls, and monitors MiNiFi agents. It allows you to develop, deploy, run, and monitor edge-flow apps and ML models at the edge. Edge Flow Manager offers an easy-to-use NiFi-like user interface that allows users to leverage NiFi processors to design data flows that can be pushed out to the edge. These flow files can instruct the edge agent to collect specific data points from the edge device as well as process it at the edge and stream it into the enterprise. These flow files can also be changed from the same user interface and can be deployed to the edge to any specific class of devices. This allows the user to change the behavior of a specific set of agents in the field based on specific criteria.
Prerequisite knowledge
- General knowledge of programming
- Experience programming hands on (useful but not required)
Materials or downloads needed in advance
What you'll learn
- Get hands-on experience handling edge device sand agents, no-code flow programming, and the ability to control and monitor tens of thousands of these agents
