ZETA (ZEro Trust elAsticity) is an open-source framework that supports zero-trust in the elasticity of edge-cloud microservices. ZETA also provides support for elasticity delegation capabilities between these edge-cloud microservices.
ZETA is a distributed framework aims to support zero-trust in the elasticity operations edge-cloud microservices. It is a platform-agnostic framework that can evaluate contextual trust levels. ZETA takes into consideration a high-level view of the platform services that are deployed on cloud. For more details, checkout the wiki page.
The baseline ZETA requires
- Docker and docker-compose
There are a few additional external dependencies if you want to generate plots and stress test ZETA. They include:
- k6.io
- Jupyter
The installation of ZETA is quite straight-forward. Although you may have to be careful about the providing the correct manifest.
Steps:
- Provide the correct
influxDB.conf
configurations and mount it during the runtime. - (First Time only) Run the init.db when the observed-knowledge component starts up.
- Edit the
trust-computation/trust_config.yaml
values. - Put your public/private keypair in the authorization service component
- (Optional) Supplement the
gp_regression.py
with your own. - Fill the docker-compose.yml config variables
- create .env file for sensitive environment variables
Mandatory Env variables:
Variable Name | Description |
---|---|
SERVICE_KNOWLEDGE_USERNAME | Username for service knowledge component |
SERVICE_KNOWLEDGE_PASSWORD | Password for service knowledge component |
INFLUXDB_INIT_PASSWORD | Password for InfluxDB |
INFLUXDB_INIT_USERNAME | Username for InfluxDB |
INFLUXDB_INIT_BUCKET | Bucket Name for InfluxDB (Optional) |
INFLUXDB_INIT_ORG | Default organization name for InfluxDB (Optional) |
Finally, start the docker-compose.yml services
