First Extension

Extending NEMI

NEMI is an extensible federated platform, to process data and implement AI based control loops in edge infrastructures with centralized services. As indicated in the figure below, an extension should implement three different components (blue areas):

1. Sense: an adapter to collect information about an active system.
2. Act: an adapter to control an active system.
3. AI: a control loop component to autonomously interact with an active system at the edge or from the central system.

Setup Developer Environment

Based on this information, it’s now time to write our first extension…(to be continued here)

Piper Developments

In case you want to directly extend piper, we’ve some commands to work with the current developer branch in your local docker infrastructure:

• ./nemi.sh dev will compile, test and deploy the piper code as containers
• ./nemi.sh test-dev will test the piper services
• ./nemi.sh remove-dev will remove the piper services and container
