Abstract Traditional solutions that use servers or computers to deploy on-site are bulky and costly. The edge computing system can be deployed in a lightweight and flexible manner according to the actual needs of the site, so as to achieve the lowest cost while meeting the functional requirements. Based on this, this article proposes an edge computing system solution based on microservice architecture, discusses the overall framework of the system and the implementation of microservice architecture in edge computing systems, and introduces in detail an edge computing gateway device deployment method based on the Gaussian mixture model, which can optimize the number of deployed gateway devices while ensuring the load balance of each gateway device. Finally, the advantages of the deployment method are verified through experiments.
