Features, Challenges and Issues of Fog Computing: A Comprehensive Review
Authors: , , , ,
Abstract: Fog computing is a promising technology that is used by many organizations and end-users. It has characteristics and advantages that offer services such as computing, storage, communication, and application services. It facilitates these services to end-users and allows to increase the number of devices that can connect to the network. In this paper, we provide a survey of Fog computing technology in terms of its architecture, features, advantages and disadvantages. We provide a comparison of this model with Cloud Computing, Mobile-Edge Computing, and Cloudlet Computing. We also present challenges and issues that face Fog Computing such as privacy and security, control and management, fog networking and task scheduling. Finally, we discuss aspects of Fog computing security and the benefits of integration between Fog computing and other techniques like Internet of Things and Cloud Computing.
