H-Containers

Edge computing is a recent computing paradigm that brings cloud services closer to the client. Among other features, edge computing offers extremely low client/server latencies. In order to consistently provide such low latencies, services need to run on edge nodes that are physically as close as possible to the clients. Thus, when a client changes physical location, a service should migrate between edge nodes to maintain proximity. Differently from data centers, edge nodes are often built with CPUs of different Instruction Set Architectures (ISA). Thus, a service that is natively compiled for one ISA cannot migrate to another, which hinders migration to the closest node.
