In early years, putting everything including applications on the cloud is quite popular, but it gradually increases heavy burden to cloud centers. Therefore, the cost for using cloud services sometimes could be costly.
Network slicing is introduced in 5G that utilizes virtualized network functions (VNFs) in single hardware to acquire specific benefit such as low latency, bigger bandwidth or massive device connection for particular applications. Therefore, instead of deploying everything on the cloud, some scenarios would perform better in terms of scalability, efficiency and cost-saving if deployed directly on edge.
OpenNESS is a software tool that allows developers to deploy applications to edge seamlessly while remains accessible within multi-clouds via 5G MEC (Multi-Edge Computing) standards.
