21BCA071 Case Study FCN

Fog computing is a decentralized computing architecture that performs data processing and analytics near where the data is created, rather than sending all data to a centralized cloud. It features three layers - end devices, fog nodes located between devices and cloud that process data in real-time, and the cloud. Fog computing offers benefits like reduced latency for real-time applications, improved security by keeping data local, and helping organizations comply with data privacy regulations. While it has potential to transform industries by enabling real-time analytics, challenges include managing large volumes of data from edge devices.

What is Fog Computing??


Fog computing is a decentralized computing infrastructure in
which data, compute, storage and applications are located
somewhere between the data source and the cloud. Like
edge computing, fog computing brings the advantages and
power of the cloud closer to where data is created and acted
upon.

Many people use the terms fog computing and edge


computing interchangeably because both involve bringing
intelligence and processing closer to where the data is
created. This is often done to improve efficiency, though it
might also be done for security and compliance reasons.

• Architecture:
Fog computing is a computing architecture in which a
series of nodes receives data from IoT devices in real
time. These nodes perform real-time processing of the
data that they receive, with millisecond response time. The
nodes periodically send analytical summary information to
the cloud.

Fog computing features three layers: end devices, fog


nodes, and clouds.

• Example:
Popular fog computing applications include smart grids,
smart cities, smart buildings, vehicle networks and
software-defined networks.

• Use:
This small storage and computation of data before sending it
over to the cloud is fog computing. Fog computing involves
the usage of devices with lower processing capabilities to
share some of the cloud's load. The goal of fog computing is
to use the cloud only for long-term and resource-intensive
analytics.

Fog computing is a computing architecture in which a series


of nodes receives data from IoT devices in real time. These
nodes perform real-time processing of the data that they
receive, with millisecond response time. The nodes
periodically send analytical summary information to the
cloud.

• How Does Fog Computing Work?


Fog Computing uses the concept of ‘Fog Nodes’. These Fog
nodes are located closer to the data source and have
higher processing and storage capabilities. Fog Nodes can
process the data far quicker than sending the request to
the cloud for centralized processing.

The Cloud is getting cluttered due to enormous number of


devices connecting to the internet. Since Cloud Computing
is not viable in some cases, it has become necessary to use
fog computing for IOT Devices. It can handle the enormous
data generated by these devices.

• Benefits of Fog Computing:


Fog computing offers several benefits over traditional cloud
computing. One of the primary advantages is reduced
latency, which is critical for applications that require real-
time data processing. By processing data at the edge of the
network, fog computing can reduce the time it takes for data
to travel from the source to the destination.

Another benefit of fog computing is improved security. Data


is processed and stored locally, reducing the risk of cyber
attacks and data breaches. Additionally, fog computing can
help organizations comply with data privacy regulations by
keeping sensitive data within the local network.

• Future of Fog Computing


Fog computing is still an emerging technology, but it has the
potential to transform various industries. As more devices
become connected to the internet, the demand for real-time
data processing and analysis will increase, making fog
computing a critical technology.

In the future, fog computing is expected to become more


intelligent and autonomous. It will be able to analyze data in
real-time and make decisions without human intervention.
Additionally, fog computing is expected to enable new
applications, such as autonomous vehicles and smart homes.

• Different Types of Fog Nodes:


1. Fog Devices
2. Fog Servers
3. Gateways

• Challenges of Fog Computing


While fog computing offers several benefits, it also poses
some challenges. One of the primary challenges is managing
the large volumes of data generated by edge devices. This
requires efficient data processing and storage solutions,
which can be expensive and complex.
