Fog, Edge and Cloud Computing

Fog computing enhances IoT by distributing data management closer to the edge of the network, reducing latency and improving security while minimizing bandwidth issues. It allows for real-time data processing at or near the source, benefiting applications like smart meters and industrial controllers. However, fog computing introduces additional complexity and costs compared to traditional cloud solutions, which offer scalability and extensive storage capabilities.

Fogy Kage and Cloud in lo é Fog, Rdge a g Fog Computing in lot i istribute wanagement throughout the lor The solution to the challenges in loT is to distribute data management loT S¥stem, 2 in lor i device with computing, storage, and network connectivity can be a fog node, close to the edge of the IP network as possible, The best-known embodiment of edge servic fog computing. Examples include industrial controllers, switehes, routers, embedded servers, and oT Bateways, Analyzing loT data close to where it is collected minimizes latency, offloads gigabytes of network traffic from the core network, and keeps sensi tive data inside the local network. Fog services are typically accomplished very close to the edge device, sitting as close to the IoT endpoints as possible. One significant advantage of this is that the fog node has contextual awareness of the sensors it is managing because of its geographic pros mity to those sensors. For example, there Servers residing in the cloud, @ scanned with OKEN Scanner , patch processing. Pre-processing of data in the fog nodes allows upper-layer applications to perform batch processing on a subset of the data. Advantages of fog computing in 1oT ing approach has many benefits for the Internet of Things, Big Data, and real-time The fe g The main advantages of fog computing over cloud computing are as follows: Low latency - Fog tends to be closer to users and can provide a quicker response. ‘There is no problem with bandwidth - pieces of information are aggregated at separate points rather than sent through a channel to a single hub, Due to the many interconnected channels - loss of connection is impossible. High Security - because the data is processed by multiple nodes in a complex distributed system. perience - Quick responses and no downtime make users satisfied. Improved User Ex Power-efficiency - Edge nodes run power efficient protocols such as Bluetooth, Zigbee, or Z-Wave. Disadvantages of fog computing in loT The technology has no obvious disadvantages, but some shortcomings can be named Fog is an additional layer in a more complex system - a data processing and storage system. Additional expenses - companies must buy edge devices: routers, hubs, gateways. Limited scalability - Fog is not scalable like a cloud. 1 @ scanned with OKEN Scanner Hundreds Data Center/Cloud % sath Ey ceinemee ackhaul By! os Tens of Thousands Multi-Service Edge Millions \e Embedded Systems and Sensors Low Power, Low Bandwidth Possible to deliver distributed computing, Geographic distribution: In sharp contrast to the more centralized Cloud, the services and applications its, Deployment near IoT endpoints: Fog nodes are ‘a large number D 1000 nodes per ig deployments often see 3000 to 4 fateway router, which also functions asthe fog computing node, less communi: Use for real-time interactions: Important ‘og applications involve real-time interactions rather than @ scanned with OKEN Scanner jua$ (infrastructure asa Servies)- A remote dat enter iy ° ith data story processing power, and networking resourc age eg We Capacity PaaS (Platform as a Ser iee) + A development platform with ols and eon icati ‘omponents to sul test, an launch applications. f «SaaS (Software as a Service) - Software tailored to suit various business needs, sy comecting your company 0 the Clow, you ean acces the services mentioned above from any location and through various devices. ‘Therefore, availabili s the biggest advantage.

For example, consider a water sensor ribution network may on a fire hydrant. While a fog node sitting on an electrical pole in the d have an excellent view of all the fire hydrants in a local neighborhood, a node on each hydrant would have clear view of a water pressure drop on its own line and would be able to quickly generate an alert of a localized problem. Another example is in the use of smart meters. Edge compute-capable meters are able to communicate with each other to share information on small subsets of the electrical distribution arid 10 monitor localized power quality and consumption, and they can inform fog node of events censure the highest ly.tiny.sections of the grid.
