The deployment of increasingly diverse services on edge devices is becoming increasingly prevalent. Efficiently deploying functionally heterogeneous services to resource heterogeneous edge nodes while achieving superior user experience is a challenge that every edge system must address. In this paper, we propose a container-node graph (CN-Graph)-based container optimal matching deployment algorithm, edge Kuhn-Munkres algorithm (EKM) based on container-node graph, designed for heterogeneous environment to optimize system performance. Initially, containers are categorized by functional labels, followed by construction of a CN-Graph model based on the relationship between containers and nodes. Finally, the container deployment problem is transformed into a weighted bipartite graph optimal matching problem. In comparison with the mainstream container deployment algorithms, Swarm, Kubernetes, and the recently emerged ECSched-dp algorithm, the EKM algorithm demonstrates the ability to effectively enhance the average runtime performance of containers to 3.74 times, 4.10 times, and 2.39 times, respectively.
