With organisations moving away from in-house servers but still requiring love latency, high security and stability, edge nodes make their appearance as the best alternative. However, it is unclear which deploymen tmethod to use on those systems. This study explored the benefits and disadvantages of the multi-cluster and remote worker approach.Two lightweight Kubernetes distributions were also included in determining the impact of the deployment method compared to using different Kubernetes distributions. The remote worker approach used the lightweight K3s, while Microk8s and K3s were tested on the multicluster. The remote worker approach showed lower power consumption and performed better in a file transfer. A CPU-heavy task showed k3s multi-cluster approach setups outperformed the remote worker approach while using Micro k3s performed similarly to the remote worker with the same number of edge nodes. Determining which methods to use should be determined based on the use case, as the two methods got different benefits in regard to security and stability.
