How to best deploy your Fog applications, probably Stefano Forti - PowerPoint PPT Presentation

How to best deploy your Fog applications, probably Stefano Forti Ahmad Ibrahim Antonio Brogi 1 st International Conference on Fog and Edge Computing 2017 14 th May 2017 name.surname@di.unipi.it

IoT and Cloud Computing 50 billion of connected devices by 2020 • The Cloud alone cannot support the IoT momentum . • There is a need for filtering and processing before the Cloud. 2

Fog Features QoS-awareness • App deployments dynamically adapt to the state of the network. Location-awareness • Position is known so to handle fluid and mobile computation. Context-awareness • Discover and use available resources, cooperating horizontally. 3

Open Problems • How to automatically decide where to deploy each component of an application by exploiting QoS-, location-, and context-awareness? • How to estimate the QoS- assurance of a candidate deployment? 4

H OW MANY AND HOW Concretely... POWERFUL F OG NODES DO I NEED TO ADEQUATELY DEPLOY MY APPLICATION ? S HOULD I DEPLOY THIS COMPONENT ONTO THE C LOUD , ONTO A F OG - AS - A -S ERVICE OPENED IN MY CITY OR ON MY PREMISES GATEWAY ? I S THERE ANY COMPONENT I’ D BETTER DEPLOY ON A DIFFERENT NODE AFTER THIS LINK / NODE FAILURE ? 6

D O I HAVE TO UPGRADE Concretely … MY INFRASTRUCTURE IF THE APPLICATION I S IT POSSIBLE TO REQUIREMENTS CHANGE ? REDUCE RESOURCE CONSUMPTION OF SOME F OG NODES , OR AVOID THEM ? W HICH ARE THE ELIGIBLE DEPLOYMENTS THAT COMPLY MOST WITH THE REQUIRED Q O S ? 7

Our Solution Modelling of IoT Algorithms to Evaluation of apps and Fog determine eligible output deployments infrastructures deployments via Monte Carlo 8

QoS Profiles • A QoS profile is a pair ℓ, 𝑐 ↓ , 𝑐 ↑ A VERAGE DOWNLOAD A VERAGE L ATENCY & UPLOAD BANDWIDTH • They represent latency and bandwidth featured by a link or requested by a software interaction. 10

Compatibility ✓ X • A software component is compatible with a Fog or Cloud node when its software and hardware * can support at least that component. ✓ ✓ * Hardware only for Fog nodes. 13

Things Binding • Software components may have Things requests. • Each request is bound to a specific Thing before deployment. ThingsController fire video moisture water 14

Deployment Policy • A start-up sponsored by a specific Cloud provider, • an automated industrial plant, • an invoked third party service ... ...may enforce legal , commercial or political constraints for deploying an application. • We allow specification of a whitelist of nodes permitted for installing each component. 15

Eligible Deployments • An eligible deployment for an application over a Fog infrastructure ensures Bandwidth and Compatibility and Hardware Things latency deployment policies resources binding 16

Monte Carlo Simulator Repeat a sufficiently large number of times: 1. Sample a QoS profile for each link in the infrastructure. 2. Run backtracking algorithm. Compute QoS-assurance of generated deployments. 19

FogTorch Π Results W HICH ARE THE ELIGIBLE DEPLOYMENTS THAT COMPLY MOST WITH THE REQUIRED Q O S ? 20

FogTorch Π Results (1) I S IT POSSIBLE TO REDUCE RESOURCE CONSUMPTION OF SOME F OG NODES , OR AVOID THEM ? E.g., avoid using fog_3 for deployment. 21
