Power Distribution IoT Tasks Online Scheduling Algorithm Based on Cloud-Edge Dependent Microservice

Abstract

The power distribution network business gradually extends from the grid domain to the social service domain, and the new business keeps expanding. The edge device uses microservice architecture and container technology to realize the processing of different services by one physical device. Although the power distribution network IoT with cloud-edge architecture has good scalability, scenarios with insufficient resources for edge devices may occur. In order to support the scheduling and collaborative processing of tasks under the resource-constrained scenario from the edge device, this paper proposes a cloud-edge collaborative online scheduling method for the distribution of station area tasks under the microservice architecture. The article models the characteristics of power tasks and their constraints in the cloud-edge containerized scenario, designs the priority policy and task assignment policy based on the cloud-edge scheduling mechanism of containerized power tasks, and schedules the tasks in real time by an improved online algorithm. Simulation results show that the algorithm proposed in this paper has high task execution efficiency, can improve the completion rate of important tasks with limited resources of edge devices, and improves system security through resource replacement.
