An Overview of Fog Data Analytics for IoT Applications

Abstract

With the rapid growth in the data and processing over the cloud, it has become easier to access those data. On the other hand, it poses many technical and security challenges to the users of those provisions. Fog computing makes these technical issues manageable to some extent. Fog computing is one of the promising solutions for handling the big data produced by the IoT, which are often security-critical and time-sensitive. Massive IoT data analytics by a fog computing structure is emerging and requires extensive research for more proficient knowledge and smart decisions. Though an advancement in big data analytics is taking place, it does not consider fog data analytics. However, there are many challenges, including heterogeneity, security, accessibility, resource sharing, network communication overhead, the real-time data processing of complex data, etc. This paper explores various research challenges and their solution using the next-generation fog data analytics and IoT networks. We also performed an experimental analysis based on fog computing and cloud architecture. The result shows that fog computing outperforms the cloud in terms of network utilization and latency. Finally, the paper is concluded with future trends.

Autonomous Threat Response at the Edge Processing Level in the Industrial Internet of Things

“…• With augmented traffic in the network, there is a high suspicion of distortions, leading to a loss of coherence in the data that could potentially cause false-positive alarms; • Regrettably, the quantity of false-positive alarms surpasses the potential attacks by intruders-therefore, a limitation is to accurately differentiate these genuine attacks from the irrelevant ones; • A challenge in classifying alarms arises due to the diversity of firmware versions-it is imperative to keep the devices' versions in the network as current as possible and to utilize devices from vendors with minimal diversification [30][31][32][33][34].…”

Evolution of Hybrid Intelligence and Its Application in Evidence-Based Medicine: A Review

“…As result, much of the data collected can be wasted. Big Data can be widely exploited only if we apply suitable methods to store and analyze them [ 15 ], and also immutability and verifiability properties becomes necessary, together with secure data sharing [ 7 , 25 , 26 ]. Blockchain technology is one example that has been suggested, providing many benefits in terms of data quality and secure data sharing [ 7 , 25 , 27 ].…”

Intelligent Fog Computing Surveillance System for Crime and Vulnerability Identification and Tracing

“…Due to emerging trends in the processing power of EC and developments in hardware architecture, FC will find new usage in a variety of sectors. By pooling idle resources throughout the CC architecture to improve efficiency, distributed FGNs (Bhatia et al, 2023), for which can be virtualizing applications, disseminate resources and services.…”
