# Deploy via Gravity Network The Gravity Network enables deployment to public cloud, private VPC, on-premises, multi-cloud, or edge — one platform, one SDK, one consistent developer experience across all environments. ## Overview The Gravity Network is Agentuity's distributed deployment infrastructure that allows you to: - **Deploy Anywhere**: Cloud, VPC, on-prem, edge, or multi-cloud - **Unified SDK**: Same code runs everywhere - **Consistent Experience**: Same CLI, same APIs, same services - **Global Distribution**: Run agents close to users and data - **Hybrid Architecture**: Seamlessly mix deployment targets ## Key Concepts ### What is the Gravity Network? The Gravity Network is Agentuity's answer to the question: "How do we run the same agent code across radically different infrastructure without changing a single line?" It provides: - **Location Abstraction**: Deploy to any infrastructure - **Service Portability**: Built-in services work everywhere - **Agent Mobility**: Move agents between environments - **Cross-Environment Communication**: Agents can call each other across clouds ### Architecture ``` ┌──────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐ │ Gravity Network Control Plane │ │ (Agent Registry, Routing, Discovery, Monitoring) │ └───────────────┬──────────────────────────────────────┘ │ ┌───────┴────────┬────────────┬──────────────┐ │ │ │ │ ┌────▼────┐ ┌─────▼─────┐ ┌──▼───┐ ┌─────▼──────┐ │ AWS │ │ Azure │ │ GCP │ │ On-Prem │ │ Region │ │ Region │ │ Zone │ │ Data Center│ └────┬────┘ └─────┬─────┘ └──┬───┘ └─────┬──────┘ │ │ │ │ [Agents] [Agents] [Agents] [Agents] ``` ## Deployment Targets ### 1. Multi-Cloud Deployment Deploy the same agent across multiple cloud providers: ```yaml # agentuity.yaml name: global-agent runtime: nodejs deployment: type: multi-cloud targets: - cloud: aws regions: - us-east-1 - eu-west-1 - cloud: azure regions: - eastus - westeurope - cloud: gcp regions: - us-central1 - europe-west1 routing: strategy: geo-latency # Route to nearest region ``` ```bash # Deploy to all targets agentuity deploy --multi-cloud # Verify deployment agentuity status --all-targets ``` ### 2. Edge Deployment Run agents at the edge, close to users: ```yaml # agentuity.yaml deployment: type: edge edge-locations: - americas: 12 # Deploy to 12 edge locations in Americas - europe: 8 - asia: 15 - oceania: 3 edge-config: cold-start-optimization: true local-caching: true data-residency: enforce ``` ```bash # Deploy to edge network agentuity deploy --edge # Global edge deployment with < 50ms latency to 95% of users ``` ### 3. Hybrid Cloud Mix cloud and on-premises: ```yaml # agentuity.yaml deployment: type: hybrid # Public workloads in cloud cloud: provider: aws regions: [us-east-1] agents: - frontend-agent - api-gateway-agent # Sensitive workloads on-prem on-premises: clusters: - datacenter-1 agents: - data-processing-agent - compliance-agent # Secure tunnel for communication interconnect: type: wireguard endpoints: - cloud: vpn.aws.example.com - on-prem: vpn.datacenter.example.com ``` ### 4. Multi-Region Single Cloud Maximize availability within one cloud: ```yaml # agentuity.yaml deployment: type: multi-region cloud: aws regions: primary: us-east-1 secondary: - us-west-2 - eu-west-1 - ap-southeast-1 failover: automatic: true health-check-interval: 30s failover-threshold: 3 data-replication: strategy: active-active conflict-resolution: last-write-wins ``` ## Configuration ### Basic Multi-Cloud Setup ```bash # Configure multiple cloud providers agentuity config set-cloud aws \ --access-key-id $AWS_ACCESS_KEY \ --secret-access-key $AWS_SECRET_KEY \ --region us-east-1 agentuity config set-cloud azure \ --subscription-id $AZURE_SUBSCRIPTION \ --tenant-id $AZURE_TENANT \ --region eastus agentuity config set-cloud gcp \ --project-id $GCP_PROJECT \ --key-file $GCP_KEY_FILE \ --region us-central1 # Deploy across all configured clouds agentuity deploy --gravity ``` ### Gravity Network Features ```yaml # agentuity.yaml gravity: # Enable Gravity Network features enabled: true # Agent discovery across environments discovery: enabled: true protocol: mDNS # or consul, etcd # Cross-environment communication mesh: enabled: true encryption: wireguard load-balancing: round-robin # Data synchronization sync: enabled: true services: - kv-store - vector-db strategy: eventual-consistency # Global routing routing: strategy: geo-latency fallback: nearest-available health-check: true ``` ## Deployment Strategies ### Geographic Routing Route requests based on user location: ```yaml routing: strategy: geographic rules: - region: americas target: aws:us-east-1 - region: europe target: azure:westeurope - region: asia target: gcp:asia-southeast1 - default: aws:us-east-1 ``` ### Weighted Distribution Gradual rollout across environments: ```yaml routing: strategy: weighted weights: aws:us-east-1: 70 azure:eastus: 20 gcp:us-central1: 10 ``` ### Canary with Gravity Test new versions in one environment: ```yaml deployment: canary: enabled: true initial-environment: aws:us-west-2 traffic: 5% duration: 1h success-criteria: error-rate: < 0.01 latency-p99: < 500ms on-success: promote-all-environments on-failure: rollback ``` ## Cross-Environment Features ### Agent-to-Agent Communication Agents can call each other across any environment: ```typescript import { createAgent } from '@agentuity/runtime'; const agentA = createAgent('agent-a', { handler: async (ctx) => { // Call agent-b regardless of where it's deployed const result = await ctx.callAgent('agent-b', { data: 'Hello from agent-a' }); return result; } }); // Gravity Network handles: // - Service discovery // - Load balancing // - Encryption // - Retries and timeouts ``` ### Global State Synchronization ```typescript import { kv } from '@agentuity/runtime'; // Writes are replicated across all deployments await kv.set('user:123', { name: 'Alice' }, { replication: 'all-regions', consistency: 'eventual' }); // Reads are local-first for performance const user = await kv.get('user:123'); ``` ### Distributed Tracing ```typescript import { trace } from '@agentuity/runtime'; // Traces follow requests across environments const span = trace.startSpan('process-request'); span.setAttribute('environment', process.env.DEPLOYMENT_ENV); // Automatically propagates across agent calls await ctx.callAgent('downstream-agent', data); span.end(); // View traces in Agentuity Console: // Request flows through AWS -> Azure -> On-Prem ``` ## Data Residency & Compliance ### Regional Data Isolation ```yaml compliance: data-residency: enabled: true rules: # EU data stays in EU - data-class: eu-customer-data allowed-regions: - azure:westeurope - aws:eu-west-1 deny-all-others: true # US data can use any US region - data-class: us-data allowed-regions: - aws:us-* - azure:*us* - gcp:us-* ``` ### Cross-Border Data Transfer ```yaml compliance: cross-border-transfer: enabled: false # Block by default allowed-pairs: # Only specific paths allowed - source: aws:us-east-1 destination: aws:eu-west-1 justification: "GDPR compliant transfer" approval: "GDPR-2024-001" ``` ## Edge Computing Use Cases ### IoT Agent Deployment ```yaml # Deploy agents to edge locations near IoT devices deployment: type: edge edge-tier: industrial # Deploy to specific edge locations locations: - factory-floor-1 # On-premises edge - warehouse-2 # On-premises edge - aws-wavelength:us-east-1 # Telecom edge # Minimal latency requirements latency: device-to-agent: < 10ms agent-to-cloud: < 100ms ``` ### Real-Time Processing ```yaml # Edge agents with cloud backup deployment: type: edge-cloud edge: # Process at edge for speed agents: - video-analytics - anomaly-detection storage: local-ssd cloud: # Long-term storage and training in cloud agents: - model-training - data-warehouse storage: s3 sync: # Sync processed data to cloud edge-to-cloud: batch interval: 5m ``` ## Monitoring & Operations ### Global Dashboard ```bash # View all deployments agentuity status --gravity # Output: # ┌─────────────┬────────────────┬──────────┬──────────┐ # │ Environment │ Agents Running │ Requests │ Latency │ # ├─────────────┼────────────────┼──────────┼──────────┤ # │ AWS US-East │ 5 │ 1.2M/day │ 45ms p50 │ # │ Azure EU │ 3 │ 800K/day │ 38ms p50 │ # │ GCP Asia │ 4 │ 950K/day │ 52ms p50 │ # │ On-Prem DC │ 2 │ 150K/day │ 12ms p50 │ # └─────────────┴────────────────┴──────────┴──────────┘ ``` ### Global Metrics ```bash # Aggregate metrics across all environments agentuity metrics aggregate \ --metric request-rate \ --metric error-rate \ --metric latency-p99 \ --all-environments # Compare environments agentuity metrics compare \ --environments aws:us-east-1,azure:westeurope \ --period 24h ``` ### Health Checks ```yaml health-checks: global: enabled: true interval: 30s endpoints: - /health - /ready failure-action: failover failover-target: nearest-healthy alerts: - trigger: environment-down action: page-oncall - trigger: high-latency threshold: 500ms action: auto-scale ``` ## Disaster Recovery ### Automatic Failover ```yaml disaster-recovery: automatic-failover: enabled: true detection-time: 60s # Detect failure in 60s failover-time: 30s # Failover in 30s backup-environments: primary: aws:us-east-1 secondary: azure:eastus tertiary: gcp:us-central1 data-replication: mode: synchronous # Zero data loss lag-threshold: 1s ``` ### Multi-Cloud Backup ```bash # Backup to multiple clouds simultaneously agentuity backup create \ --targets aws:s3,azure:blob,gcp:storage \ --encryption enabled \ --retention 30d ``` ## Cost Optimization ### Cost-Aware Routing ```yaml routing: strategy: cost-optimized preferences: - minimize-cost - maintain-latency: < 200ms cost-rules: # Use cheaper regions when possible - condition: non-peak-hours target: spot-instances - condition: high-load target: reserved-instances ``` ### Environment-Specific Scaling ```yaml scaling: per-environment: aws:us-east-1: min: 3 max: 50 strategy: aggressive azure:westeurope: min: 1 max: 20 strategy: conservative on-prem: fixed: 5 # Fixed capacity on-prem ``` ## Best Practices 1. **Start Regional**: Begin with single-region, expand as needed 2. **Test Failover**: Regularly test cross-environment failover 3. **Monitor Costs**: Track per-environment costs 4. **Data Residency**: Plan data residency requirements early 5. **Network Security**: Use encrypted tunnels for hybrid 6. **Health Checks**: Implement comprehensive health monitoring 7. **Incremental Rollout**: Use canary deployments across environments ## Troubleshooting ### Cross-Environment Communication Issues ```bash # Test connectivity between environments agentuity network test \ --source aws:us-east-1 \ --target azure:westeurope # Check Gravity mesh status agentuity gravity status # View routing table agentuity gravity routes ``` ### Latency Issues ```bash # Measure latency between all environments agentuity network latency-matrix # Optimize routing agentuity routing optimize --target latency ``` ### Data Sync Issues ```bash # Check synchronization status agentuity sync status # Force sync agentuity sync trigger --service kv-store # View sync conflicts agentuity sync conflicts --resolve manual ``` ## References -
