Rise Edge: Edge AI Compute Platform

Edge Cloud-Native · Central Train, Edge Infer · 6 Unifications

Platform Overview

Model trained, now what? How do you push it to factory floors, roadside cameras, retail terminals? Rise Edge extends datacenter AI to the edge using KubeEdge / OpenYurt. It supports managed and dedicated dual-mode deployment, onboards heterogeneous nodes through a unified edge gateway, and with Rise VAST vGPU engine, edge nodes get GPU/NPU slicing and overcommit. From batch node registration, one-click app distribution to OTA model updates. Inference keeps running without network, management stays in the cloud.

Edge chip vendors supported

Unified Resource Management

Multi-Runtime Support

Compatible with both KubeEdge and OpenYurt edge runtimes. Manage clusters with different runtimes on a single platform, no vendor lock-in.

Managed & Dedicated Modes

Managed mode (Virtual Edge Cluster) for lightweight onboarding; Dedicated mode for independent operations. Unified gateway manages both.

Edge vGPU Slicing

Powered by Rise VAST vGPU engine, fine-grained GPU/NPU partitioning on edge nodes. Multiple inference services share one edge card for dramatically improved utilization.

Heterogeneous Chip Support

Supports NVIDIA Jetson/T4, Ascend 310P/910B, KunlunXin, Hygon and more edge AI accelerators, unified across x86 and ARM architectures.

OTA Node Onboarding

Batch node registration, automatic dependency installation, auto-upgrade, and backup/restore. Select container engine and edge runtime, one-click onboarding with zero config errors.

Unified Edge Gateway

edge-gateway unifies cloud-edge API access, communication, and OTA control channels, abstracting away underlying network complexity.

Application & Model Distribution

Edge App Store

Unified app/model repository supporting containers, models, agents, and workflows with full lifecycle management. Visual deployment, one-click push, canary upgrades.

OTA Model Delivery

One-click push trained models to designated edge node groups. Canary releases, batch rollouts, incremental delta updates, zero-downtime hot updates.

Version Management & Rollback

Complete edge model and application version tracking with one-click rollback to any stable version, ensuring edge business continuity.

Offline Autonomy

KubeEdge / OpenYurt edge autonomy ensures inference services continue during network disconnection, with automatic state sync on reconnection.

Unified Operations & Access Control

NodeGroup Resource Management

Manage physical resources by node groups with multi-tier structure, resource authorization, and least-privilege node access. Dual mapping between resource tenants and application tenants.

Multi-cluster Management

Cross-region multi-cluster onboarding compatible with different K8s distributions. Single console for all edge site cluster status, node resources, and container workloads.

Edge Monitoring & Alerting

Real-time collection of edge GPU/NPU utilization, temperature, power, and inference latency metrics. Tiered alerting (email/SMS/DingTalk/WeCom) with on-call rotation.

Remote Diagnostics

View edge node logs and run diagnostic commands from the cloud, with remote terminal access. No on-site maintenance needed.

Auto-healing

Automatic edge node fault detection, inference service migration to healthy nodes in the same group, with faulty node isolation and reporting.

Security & Audit

End-to-end encrypted cloud-edge communication, strict inter-container resource isolation, full traceability of operations logs and resource changes for industrial compliance.

Use Cases

Smart Manufacturing QA

Deploy visual inspection models to production line edge nodes for millisecond-level defect detection. Model iterations pushed via OTA with zero downtime.

Intelligent Transportation

Roadside edge nodes run vehicle recognition and traffic flow analysis locally, avoiding backhaul latency. Supports Ascend 310P edge cards.

Smart Retail

In-store edge devices run customer flow analysis and product recognition. Offline-capable with cloud-managed model and app versions across hundreds of stores.

Smart Campus & Security

Campus cameras connected to edge AI nodes for local behavior analysis and alerting, reducing bandwidth costs and keeping data on-premises.
