This study discusses the deficiencies in transforming current farming to the next generation and precision agriculture, which applies the concept of Industry 4.0 to promote agriculture production sustainability through the use of advanced cyber systems and intelligent mechanical inventions. Precision agriculture’s goal is to increase the intelligence in the production of the crop, using real-time sensing, control and optimization for enhancing soil-crop health, as well as advanced cyber-enabled tools for automation and efficiency. Integrated analysis of agricultural and soil ecosystems is in nascent stages, but growing steadily with improvements in sensing technologies, interoperability standards and data-influenced decision making. This study aims to develop an adaptive Sensor-Drone-Satellite (SeDS) system for promoting farming operations and sustainability via balancing often-conflicting objectives (e.g. cost environmental and social). This integrated analyzer system is a conceptual test bed built on a cyber-physical interface

Data is the new fuel for any system to deliver smart and sophisticated services. Data is being touted as the strategic asset for any organization to plan ahead and provide next-generation capabilities with all the clarity and confidence. Whether data is internally sourced or aggregated from different and distributed source, it is essential for all kinds of data to be continuously and consciously collected, transmitted, cleansed, and hosted on storage systems. There are several types of analytical methods and machines to do deeper and decisive analytics on those curated and consolidated data to extract actionable insights in real-time. Precise and concise analytics guarantee perfect decision-making and action. We need competent and highly integrated analytics platform for speeding up, simplifying and streamlining data analytics, which is becoming a hard nut to crack due to the multi-structured and massive quantities of data. On the infrastructure front, we need highly optimized compute, storage and network infrastructure for achieving data analytics with ease. Another noteworthy point is that there are batch, real-time, and interactive processing of data. Most of the personal and professional applications need real-time insights in order to produce real-time applications. That is, real-time capture, processing, and decision-making are being insisted and hence the edge or fog computing concept has become very popular. This chapter is exclusively designed in order to tell all on how to accomplish real-time analytics on fog devices data.
