Cloud computing has slowly but surely become the foremost service provider for information technology applications and platform delivery. However, Cloud issues continue to exist, like cyberattacks, slow last mile latency, and clouds lack client-centric and location-aware applications to process real time data for efficient and customized application delivery. As an alternative, Fog Computing has the potential to resolve these issues by extending the Cloud service provider's reach to the edge of the Cloud network model, right up to the Cloud service consumer. This enables a whole new state of applications and services which increases the security, enhances the cloud experience and keeps the data close to the user. This research article presents a review on the academic literature research work on Fog Computing, introduces a novel taxonomy to classify cloud products based on Fog computing elements and then determine the best fit Fog Computing product to choose for the Cloud service consumer.

This article describes how the rise of fog computing to improve cloud computing performance and the acceptance of smart devices is slowly but surely changing our future and shaping the computing environment around us. IoT integrated with advances in low cost computing, storage and power, along with high speed networks and big data, supports distributed computing. However, much like cloud computing, which are under constant security attacks and issues, distributed computing also faces similar challenges and security threats. This can be mitigated to a great extent using fog computing, which extends the limits of Cloud services to the last mile edge near to the nodes and networks, thereby increasing the performance and security levels. Fog computing also helps increase the reach and comes across as a viable solution for distributed computing. This article presents a review of the academic literature research work on the Fog Computing. The authors discuss the challenges in Fog environment and propose a new taxonomy.

The proliferation of Cloud Computing has opened new and attractive offerings for consumers. Cloud Service Providers promote and market packages of cloud computing services that cater to diverse opportunities and user applications. While this has obvious advantages, there are certain factors that are a cause for concern. Monitoring the underlying infrastructure that supports the entire fabric of cloud computing is an aspect that requires a great deal of attention. The aspect of monitoring takes on a great deal of significance when performance and robustness of cloud service on offer is taken into consideration. Although research has been conducted into various cloud computing monitoring techniques, there is scope and room yet for an integrated cloud monitoring solution that can fulfill the requirements of cloud administrators to ensure optimal performance of the underlying infrastructure of a cloud computing network. In this paper, we propose a unified monitoring model that is essentially a composite framework involving hardware and network layers. Studies conducted during our experiments suggest that our unified cloud monitoring approach can significantly aid in reducing overall carbon emissions while helping meeting compliance and audit norms by ensuring that the underlying cloud infrastructure is monitored closely

In the recent years, edge/fog computing is gaining greater importance and has led to the deployment of many smart devices and application frameworks which support real-time data processing. Edge computing is an extension to existing cloud computing environment and focuses on improving the reliability, scalability, and resource efficiency of cloud by abolishing the need for processing all the data at one time and thus increasing the bandwidth of a network. Edge computing can complement cloud computing in a way leading to a novel architecture which can benefit from both edge and cloud resources. This kind of resource architecture may require resource continuity provided that the selection of resources for executing a service in cloud is independent of physical location. Hence, this research work proposes a novel architecture called “EdgeCloud,” which is a distributed management system for resource continuity in edge to cloud computing environment. The performance of the system is evaluated by considering a traffic management service example mapped into the proposed layered framework.

Background: Fog computing paradigm has recently emerged and gained higher attention in present era of Internet of Things. The growth of large number of devices all around, leads to the situation of flow of packets everywhere on the Internet. To overcome this situation and to provide computations at network edge, fog computing is the need of present time that enhances traffic management and avoids critical situations of jam, congestion etc. Methods: For research purposes, there are many methods to implement the scenarios of fog computing i.e. real-time implementation, implementation using emulators, implementation using simulators etc. The present study aims to describe the various simulation and emulation tools for implementing fog computing scenarios. Results: Review shows that iFogSim is the simulator that most of the researchers use in their research work. Among emulators, EmuFog is being used at higher pace than other available emulators. This might be due to ease of implementation and user-friendly nature of these tools and language these tools are based upon. The use of such tools enhance better research experience and leads to improved quality of service parameters (like bandwidth, network, security etc.). Conclusion: There are many fog computing simulators/emulators based on many different platforms that uses different programming languages. The paper concludes that the two main simulation and emulation tools in the area of fog computing are iFogSim and EmuFog. Accessibility of these simulation/emulation tools enhance better research experience and leads to improved quality of service parameters along with the ease of their usage.
