Distributed Applications

ioFog is a platform for running distributed applications on Edge Compute Networks. A distributed application is made up of some number of microservices.

We can specify distributed applications in YAML through iofogctl's Application kind. We can then deploy an entire distributed application through iofogctl by using this specification:

iofogctl deploy -f application.yaml

We can also deploy individual microservices if we wish. The iofogctl Microservice kind allows us to do this.

iofogctl deploy -f microservice.yaml

The rest of this section will cover how we can manage our distributed applications and microservices after we have deployed them.
