Abstract

A system for facilitating emulation in a distributed environment is provided. During operation, the system can obtain configuration of a physical edge rack, which can include one or more physical computing devices. The system can then present an emulated edge rack in a user interface. The emulated edge rack can be a digital twin of the physical edge rack. Based on a user input received via the user interface, the system can emulate a power-on event on the emulated edge rack. The emulated power-on event can emulate a power-on event for the physical edge rack. The system can then emulate the deployment of a component in the powered-on emulated edge rack based on configuration information received via the user interface. The deployed component can be configured based on the configuration information.
