Maybe I don’t explain myself correctly. I need it out of the cloud. When you have the physical hardware available.
Sometimes @JerryChang , that hardware is available for our IOT clients, and we don’t want them have to deal complicated instructions for installing hardware with the OS tuned: vpn, wifi, docker enabled, portainer, ssh keys, cuda versions …
Besides, is a lot of work if you have a handful of clients, with a handful of edge machines. Yo have to explain or guide them many times to do all this. Time consuming work. But in a prosper future, with different edge machines,with different configurations… I see a lot of work which cloud init would solve.
