FOG COMPUTING
CHHALENGES AND OPEN ISSUES
INTRODUCTION
Fog computing was first initiated by Cisco to
extend the cloud computing to the edge of a
network
Fog computing is an end-to-end horizontal
architecture that distributes computing,
storage, control, and networking functions
closer to users along the cloud-to-thing
continuum.
Support geographically distributed, latency
sensitive, and Quality-of-Service (QoS)-aware
Internet of Things (IoT) applications.
Fog is an umbrella term that
includes an architecture for
computation, an architecture
for communication, an
architecture for storage, and
an architecture for control
CHARACTERSTIC OF FOG COMPUTING
Each fog node ensures local computation,
networking and storage capabilities
Low latency and location awareness
Supports geographic distribution
End device mobility
Capacity of processing high number
of nodes
Support for mobility
Wireless access
Real-time applications
ADVANTAGES
•SECURITY:
Information traverse less distance
chance of eavesdropping
leveraging proximity leads to
strong identity verification
ADVANTAGES
•Cognition:
Better awareness of client-specific
objectives
Location of Computing, storage, and
control functions can be well
determined
closely address customer
requirements
ADVANTAGES
Agility:
Quick innovation at affordable cost
It is much faster and cheaper to
carry out experiment with client
and edge devices in stead of
waiting for vendors of large
network and Cloud.
Fog helps to create a marketplace
to use APIs, SDKs, new mobile
services.
FOG CHALLENGES
CHALLENGES
• Distributed cloud,
•Remote controlled,
•Resource-constrained
REQUIRES ADDITIONAL SECUTITY
REQIREMENTS
Fog systems should provide a wide range
of local security services
IoT as a whole more secure
CHALLENGES
Distributed and hierarchical structure
•interfaces and protocols for different
hierarchical levels
• interact with each other
•same hierarchical level need to
Collaborate
•To serve efficiently
CHALLENGES
STANDARD & ECONOMY
•System to discover, request, and receive fog
services
• required for users and their devices
• Lead to automatic and lightweight adherence
to techniques to access fog resources
•Services to reinforce the economically viability
of computing model
•Enabling economic transactions
CHALLENGE
DATA MANAGEMENT
RESEARCH CHALENGS AND OPEN ISSUES
•Computation decomposition cross
heterogeneous, distributed and constrained
•Nodes to cloud-fog interface
•State consistency (dispersive computing
Environment)
•Elastic storage over volatile substrate
•Pricing for economic incentives
•Scalable security measures
•Capability to create self-adapting applications
Open Issues
•Communications between the Fog and the Cloud
•Communications between Fog Servers
•Fog Computing Deployment
•Parallel Computation Algorithm
•Security
•End User Privacy
