Spectro Cloud, a leading platform provider of modern Kubernetes management, today announced the Secure Edge-Native Architecture (SENA). SENA, an enterprise-ready solution architecture built on zero-trust principles that was developed with support from Intel, brings tightly-coordinated capabilities that span from the silicon to the application, to enable teams to efficiently deploy, provision, operate and manage edge environments at scale. With this solution architecture, Spectro Cloud and Intel are accelerating the entire edge industry by providing IT solution providers and enterprises with a new reference architecture that provides easy, cost-effective and secure management of edge environments at scale, thereby addressing the unique requirements of modern edge applications and deployments. SENA provides flexibility and manageability across all layers: from the hardware to the OS, Kubernetes distribution, any additional integrations and tools, all the way up to the application.
“Kubernetes has rapidly evolved from largely DIY and intellectual debates about various Kubernetes distributions to optimizing management at scale across the full lifecycle and delivering flexible solutions that are fit-to-function for various use cases and environments – such as the edge," said Tenry Fu, Spectro Cloud CEO and co-founder. “Through our collaboration with Intel to develop the Secure Edge-Native Architecture (SENA), we are redefining the standard for edge Kubernetes. SENA empowers teams with a blueprint of best-of-edge hardware and software working in unison to address a new set of requirements that conventional solutions can’t.”
Organizations in every industry are looking to innovate, improve operational efficiency and transform the customer experience. From AI-enabled medical software at hospitals, smart shopping and hospitality, to drones maintaining power grids or inspecting crops, today’s rich container-based applications utilize vast amounts of data generated at the remote endpoints. The desire to push those new applications to improve speed and accuracy is driving today’s aggressive edge transformation.
