3.  Fog computing is a term created by Cisco that
refers to extending cloud computing to the edge
of an enterprise's network.
 It is also known as Edge Computing or fogging,
fog computing.

4. Cisco introduced its fog computing vision in
“January 2014” as a way of bringing cloud
computing capabilities to the edge of the network
and as a result, closer to the rapidly growing
number of connected devices and applications that
consume cloud services and generate increasingly
massive amounts of data.
By handling these services that make up the
Internet of Things (IoT) at the network edge, data
can in many cases be processed more efficiently
than if it needed to be sent to the cloud for
processing.
*

5. Fog Computing extends the cloud computing paradigm
to the edge of the network. While fog and cloud use the
same resources (networking, compute, and storage) and
share many of the same mechanisms and attributes
(virtualization, multi-tenancy) the extension is a non-
trivial one in that there exist some fundamental
differences stemming from the reason fog computing
was developed: to address applications and services that
do not fit the paradigm of the cloud.

7.  cloud computing has so many advantages, it
also suffers from certain shortcomings too.
 High capacity(bandwidth).
 Client access link.
 High latency.
 Security.
*

8. Reduction in data movement across the
network resulting in reduced congestion.
Elimination of bottlenecks resulting from
centralized computing systems.
Improved security of encrypted data as it stays
closer to the end user.

12. Health care: The cloud computing market for healthcare
is expected to reach $5.4 billion by 2017, and fog computing would
allow this on a more localized level.

16. The main security issues are authentication at
different levels of gateways as well as (in case of
smart grids) at the smart meters installed in the
consumer’s home. Each smart meter and smart
appliance has an IP address. A malicious user
can either tamper with its own smart meter, report
false readings, or spoof IP addresses.
*

17. In smart grids, privacy issues deal with hiding details,
such as what appliance was used at what time,
while allowing correct summary information for
accurate charging.
*

18. Extending the cloud closer to the things that generate and
act on data benefits the business in the following ways:
● Better security: Protect your fog nodes using the same
policy, controls, and procedures you use in other
parts of your IT environment. Use the same physical
security and cybersecurity solutions.
● Deeper insights, with privacy control: Analyze sensitive
data locally instead of sending it to the cloud for
analysis. Your IT team can monitor and control the devices
that collect, analyze, and store data.
● Lower operating expense: Conserve network bandwidth
by processing selected data locally instead of
sending it to the cloud for analysis.
*

19. Fog computing will grow in helping the emerging network
paradigms faster processing with less delay and delay jitter
,cloud computing would serve the business community
meeting their high end computing demands lowering the
cost based on a utility pricing model.
