Executing distributed cyber-physical software processes on edge devices that maintains the resiliency of the overall system while adhering to resource constraints is quite a challenging trade-off to consider for developers. Current approaches do not solve this problem of deploying software components to devices in a way that satisfies different resilience requirements that can be encoded by developers at design time. This paper introduces a resilient deployment framework that can achieve that by accepting user-defined constraints to optimize redundancy or cost for a given application deployment. Experiments with a microgrid energy management application developed using a decentralized software platform show that the deployment configuration can play an important role in enhancing the resilience capabilities of distributed applications as well as reducing the resource demands on individual nodes even without modifying the control logic.
