Kishan Mochi developed foundational in-band device management capabilities for the open-edge-platform/edge-node-agents repository, delivering the INBM framework with core components such as the INBC client and INBD daemon. He established a scalable architecture by integrating build system configurations, Ubuntu installation scripts, and comprehensive documentation, enabling reproducible deployments and streamlined onboarding. Kishan enhanced deployment reliability and upgrade automation by implementing Debian packaging scripts and optimizing the build system using Go, Shell, and YAML. His work introduced in-band upgrade support, automated lifecycle management, and improved release engineering, resulting in smoother installations, reduced maintenance overhead, and a robust platform for future device management features.

Month 2025-10: Delivered packaging/build system enhancements and in-band upgrade support for the edge-node-agents platform, improving deployment reliability and upgrade automation. These changes in the open-edge-platform/edge-node-agents repo underpin smoother installations, automated lifecycle management, and faster upgrade cycles. Key initiatives completed: - Packaging and Build System Enhancements: tarball packaging now excludes the proto directory, buf.gen.yaml module path adjusted for code generation, and Debian packaging scripts (postinst and preinst) added to manage installations, updates, and removals with cleanup procedures. Commit: 90cde1d31420b6c8ce27eaf3ed0409d8857ed25c. - Platform Update Agent: In-band Upgrade Support implemented by updating configuration and command execution, removing provision-tc, and switching package installation to in-band-manageability to streamline upgrades. Commit: a8de804ef9daa7aa5394ce3c64c225fb7218f860. Impact and value: - Improved deployment reliability and lifecycle management through packaging hygiene and automated lifecycle scripts. - Smoother upgrade paths with in-band upgrade capability, reducing downtime and manual intervention. - Strengthened build/release automation alignment with Debian packaging practices. Technologies/skills demonstrated: - Debian packaging, build system optimization, code generation workflow (buf/gen.yaml), in-band manageability, upgrade orchestration, release engineering.
