The embodiment of the invention provides an edge cluster management method and device, an edge cluster and a readable storage medium. A main control plane is arranged in a
data center; a data plane and a standby control plane providing a
core function of a main control plane are arranged on an edge cluster, and when the edge cluster monitors that the network state between the edge cluster and a
data center is abnormal, the main control plane providing control service for the edge cluster at present is switched into the standby control plane. Therefore, resources of the
data center can be fully utilized, high-reliability control plane cluster service is provided, the problem that the control plane service is unavailable due to unpredictable network problems such as network disconnection or weak network can be effectively avoided,
high availability of data planes of edge clusters is ensured, and the reliability of the control plane is greatly improved.
