CONFIGURATION OF CONTAINER DEPLOYMENTS ON THE COMPUTE CONTINUUM USING ALIEN4CLOUD.

This paper presents the drawbacks and benefits of using Alien4Cloud as a platform for deploying container-based applications on the Compute Continuum. To achieve this, a plugin has been developed to deploy container-based applications in multiple Kubernetes clusters and to configure the containers based on their dependencies. More specifically, our implementation has been validated using a system of two Kubernetes clusters (one in Romania, and one in Spain) and a machine-learning application that has been successfully deployed using this system.
