Introduction
This guide provides the information for setting up the ELIOT Environment which includes ELIOT Manager and ELIOT Edge Node(s) with details of software and hardware specifications.
For Release-1.0 the scope of the guide covers to install the generic Ubuntu OS (16.04) Virtual Machine on Eliot Edge Node and setup a Kubernetes Cluster with Eliot Manager as the Kubernetes Master and Eliot Edge Node as the Kubernetes Node.
The ELIOT Manager can be any Cloud Virtual Machine having Ubuntu OS 16.04 and should be able to ping and SSH to the Eliot Edge Node.
For Kubernetes setup is done by using Kubeadm tool.
How to use this document
The document includes details of per-requisites / pre-installation , installation and uninstall steps.
The per-requisites and pre-installation software and hardware should be ready before executing the installation steps.
For Installation there are two mode Auto Deployment installation script steps and manual installation.
Deployment Architecture
For Release 1.0 the Deployment Architecture consists of two nodes ELIOT Manager and a single ELIOT Edge Node.
Pre-Installation Requirements
Hardware Requirements
ELIOT Manager - One VM - 8 vCPU - 32 GB RAM (can be hosted in any cloud provider) with Ubuntu OS having internet and network connectivity with ELIOT Edge Node.
ELIOT Edge Node - Ubuntu OS 16.04 / 18.04 installed with networking capability and internet capability
