Abstract
A computer-implemented method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for edge node autonomy. For a first edge node of a plurality of edge nodes in a federation in a distributed computing framework, one or more processors receive a request to be sent to a central node in the distributed computing framework. The one or more processors determine whether the federation is connected to the central node. In response to determining that the federation is not connected to the central node, the one or more processors determine whether a controller capable of processing the request is available in the federation. In response to determining that the controller capable of processing the request is available in the federation, the one or more processors notify the controller to process the request.
