AGRARIAN aims to develop an open and dynamic environment by realizing an ecosystem where distributed resources and services will be programmatically aggregated on demand to support IoT / edge data driven application workflows. AGRARIAN will develop a new programming environment and tools for the automated refactoring of existing applications and data management frameworks so they can operate in edge-based deployments as well as new edge-native programming abstractions and middleware. Based on widely accepted open source technologies and adoption of container-based technologies and orchestrators AGRARIAN will provide Seamless IoT Device-Edge-Cloud layered environment able to support dynamic computing at the continuum and will utilize state-of-the-art Cloud Native Technologies that will support and extend its capabilities towards designated ML-related applications as well as edge proxies, service orchestration and management tools. Such technologies include the use of Kubernetes, tailored to accommodate specific requirements of the constrained environments of CubeSats (e.g., KubeEdge, k3s). AGRARIAN edge AI ecosystem based on the Hybrid Network architecture will rely on an emulated network of CubeSats running portable edge-AI applications and forming a swarm of intelligent decentralized nodes.
