Abstract
Techniques discussed herein relate to implementing a distributed computing cluster (the 'cluster') including a plurality of edge devices (e.g., devices individually configured to selectively execute within an isolated computing environment). Each of the edge devices of the cluster may be configured with a respective control plane computing component. A subset of the edge devices may be selected to operate in a distributed control plane of the computing cluster. Any suitable combination of the subset selected to operate in the distributed control plane can instruct remaining edge devices of the distributed computing cluster to disable at least a portion of their respective control planes. Using these techniques, the cluster's distributed control plane can be configured and modified to scale as the cluster grows. The edge devices of the control plane may selectively connect to a centralized cloud, alleviating the remaining edge devices from needless and costly connections.
