Σχεδιασμός και υλοποίηση μηχανισμών συνεργατικής διαχείρισης και ενορχήστρωσης εφαρμογών σε υποδομές edge-cloud εφαρμογών.

The rapid evolution of information systems and the increasing complexity of modern applications have created new challenges in the management and orchestration of distributed computing environments.This thesis focuses on the study, design, and implementation of advanced mechanisms for collaborative management and orchestration of applications in distributed edge-cloud infrastructures.The main innovation of this work lies in developing a distributed orchestration architecture that supports the creation and management of dynamic collaborative schemes, known as Associations, which can span multiple service providers and geographical regions.The work presents the development of a comprehensive container management and orchestration framework, creating a solution that addresses the challenges of modern distributed applications.The system evaluation was conducted through experimental scenarios that demonstrate the effectiveness of the approach.
