“…Due to power resources limitations of the mobile user equipment and the delay that occurs by offloading the application to centralized cloud (CC), European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) proposes a solution known as Mobile edge computing (MEC) [72]. The MEC brings the network of cloud servers, storage and processing resources, closer to the mobile device, which results in benefits to mobile operations, service providers and end users.…”

The focus of this survey is to study the protocols, mechanisms, and the latest standards proposed in the literature for improving the performance and quality of video content in multipath and multihomed overlay networks. Multipath is a broader term, but in the context of this survey, we define multipath as enhancing network routing technique by using various paths that are not necessarily completely disjoint. Multipath can furnish a variety of advantages such as reliability,connection persistence, increased perceived throughput and load balancing. On the other hand, multihoming is the ability to use multiple network interfaces when connecting to the Internet to increase reliability, resilience, and performance. Most existing surveys are specialized in one specific domain area related to multipath or multihoming. This study covers the research proposals at the different layers/sublayers of an overlay network from transport to the application and extends to cover the latest technologies like machine learning, Fog and Mobile Edge computing, VR 360 video, and the Internet of Multimedia Things (IoMT). As such, our work tries to be as comprehensive as possible to relate multipath and multihoming research solutions for video streaming to the current and emerging video streaming technologies.

“…Melodic creates an infrastructure, upon which, applications can be implemented along with connection settings between their components. In Reference , the authors extended the Melodic middleware with an autonomic resource provisioning solution. The approach integrates multicloud and mobile edge computing into a MEC‐multicloud platform to enhance latency and scalability.…”

A survey on the service interoperability in cloud computing: Client‐centric and provider‐centric perspectives

2020

The vendor lock-in is a prominent issue in cloud computing. It is caused by cloud providers who offer proprietary services, which hinders the cloud interoperability. Client-centric interoperability enables the migration of the data and applications across clouds; it gives the clients control over their workloads and a wider range of service choices. Whereas, provider-centric interoperability allows the providers to collaborate. Thus, providers, who have spare resources, can lend them to other providers who lack computational or storage capabilities to overcome the limitations of their local resources. In this article, we conduct a survey to differentiate between client-and provider-centric interoperability solutions. We aim to provide an up-to-date analysis of the current tendencies and the neglected areas of the cloud interoperability field. Thus, we study the cloud service interoperability evolution through the years. Furthermore, we propose definitions for the intra-cloud and inter-cloud interoperability. Moreover, we propose a taxonomy to classify the cloud interoperability approaches into client-centric and provider-centric categories. Then, for each category, we classify the approaches based on their interoperability environment into single cloud or interconnected clouds. Finally, we analyze and compare the approaches based on multiple criteria. The study reveals the focus on the client-centric solutions and the interoperability in interconnected clouds. We notice more interest in the data and application levels interoperability, mainly, in infrastructure as a service model. We also find that client-centric solutions are, mostly, semantic technologies and brokers. However, provider-centric solutions are middleware, protocols, and standards. We conclude that a generic cloud service interoperability model is needed.

“…There is also an increasing interest among organizations to adopt DevOps for IoT application deployment to multi-cloud [8,9]. Multi-layer cloud and DevOps could prove useful for the IoT-applications that require frequent updates and real-time interactions with the IoT devices [10,11]. Hence, the question is how to develop, deploy and govern IoT applications to multi-cloud within the overall parameters of the existing organization ecosystem?…”

DevOps originated in the context of the agile development aims to enable the continuous deployment of software applications in small releases. Most recently, organizations are taking a significant interest in adopting DevOps for automatically deploying IoT applications to multi-cloud. The interest is there; however, the challenge is how to achieve this. A new DevOps reference architecture (DRA) framework has been iteratively developed to address this challenge. This paper presents the updated DRA framework and its empirical evaluation results. The empirical evaluation is composed of two phases: (1) industry case study evaluation conducted in an IT organization, and (2) industry field survey with a cohort of experts in software engineering. The evaluation aims to determine the applicability and novelty of the DRA framework. The evaluation results indicate that the DRA is fit for its intended purpose and is expected to help both researchers and practitioners. The DRA uses can architect complex design models for the purpose of supporting the automated development stage of software applications. Software engineers can implement the DRA models for deploying complex IoT application to the multi-cloud environment in the current organization development parameters.
