LF-Home Edge Integration with sync service issues #39

Closed Nitu-coder closed 4 years ago

Nitu-coder commented 4 years ago

Hello, I m working on cross collaboration of Home edge which comes under LF-Edge umbrella with open Horizon. I m trying to use the sync service to enable the sync mechanism of ML models in my edge computing for cloud. In the same regard, i m trying to build the service locally and check for transfer of models from ESS to CSS and vice versa. I have following issues in it

  1. Can Sync service operate independently without exchange api server and agbot to the service needed in Home Edge?
  2. I m trying to build the service it builds in docker,.Can i build it locally?

Can you please help me with this issue.

  1. It can operate independently, it was designed and implemented to be a re-usable entity. An example of how to use this component standalone is found here: https://github.com/open-horizon/edge-sync-service/tree/master/samples/send-receive-files. However, without the openhorizon management hub, you will not get the benefit of automatic routing and delivery of the objects. You will need logic to manipulate the destination fields of the object definition.
  2. You can build it locally, see the project level read me.

Ok, Thanks alot, that will be helpful. but any documentation to pair the edge sync service with exchange and agbot at the cloud side?

See https://github.com/edgexfoundry-holding/open-horizon-integration/tree/master/hub specifically in the section called 'High Level Steps', steps 1 and 2 will help you get an open horizon hub running, including a CSS on the cloud side. It's possible this part of the project will move from edgex-holding to another repo at some point in the future, so I dont know how long this link will be valid.
