The one-stop resource for any individual or organization considering fog computing.
Fog and Fogonomics is a comprehensive and technology-centric resource that highlights the system model, architectures, building blocks, and IEEE standards for fog computing platforms and solutions. The "fog" is defined as the multiple interconnected layers of computing along the continuum from cloud to endpoints such as user devices and things including racks or microcells in server closets, residential gateways, factory control systems, and more.
The authors―noted experts on the topic―review business models and metrics that allow for the economic assessment of fog-based information communication technology (ICT) resources, especially mobile resources. The book contains a wide range of templates and formulas for calculating quality-of-service values. Comprehensive in scope, it covers topics including fog computing technologies and reference architecture, fog-related standards and markets, fog-enabled applications and services, fog economics (fogonomics), and strategy.
To understand the fog, it helps to first understand the cloud. Cloud computing has a variety of definitions, ranging from those of standards bodies, to axiomatic and theoretical frameworks, to various vendor and analyst marketing and positioning statements. It typically is viewed as processing, storage, network, platform, software, and services resources that are available to multiple customers and various workload types. These resources are available “for rent” under a variety of pricing models, such as by the hour, by the minute, by the transaction, by the user, and so forth. Further variations include freemium models, discounts for advance reservation and purchase, for sustained flat use, and dynamic pricing. While some analysts define the cloud as having these resources accessed over the (public) Internet, there is no reason that other networking technologies cannot be used as well, ranging from cellular wireless radio access networks to interconnection facilities to dense wave division multiplexing and a variety of other public and private networks.
