“FOG COMPUTING” Focusing on Users at the Edge of Internet of Things

Datais now being delivered in large quantities to many more users. To optimize the concept of the cloud, organizations need a way to deliver content to end users through a more geographically distributed platform. The idea of fog computing is to distribute data, compute, storage to move it closer to the end-user to eliminate latency and numerous hops, and support mobile computing and data streaming. Already, we're seeing ―everything-as-a-service‖ models. The user is asking for more data access from any device, any time, from anywhere. This means that the future of the cloud must support the idea of the ―Internet of Things (IoT).‖ That's where Fog Computing comes in.
