What’s Fog Computing?
What is fog computing? Architecture System-Level for distributing, from Things to the Edge, orchestrating, managing, and over the Core to the CLOUD securing resources and Cloud, spanning multiple services protocol layers (not just placing servers, (works over and inside computing resources, apps, wireless and wireline or small clouds at the edges) networks) FOG COMPUTING A system-level horizontal architecture that distributes computing, storage, and networking closer to users, and anywhere along the Cloud-to-Thing continuum Horizontal Cloud-to-Thing Continuum Supports multiple industries Distributes resources and services to anywhere along the (not limited to any continuum specific industry, network (not just at the edges) type, or application Converged Cloud/Fog platforms domain) and services (not just isolated edge computing devices / apps)
Why Fog? It’s necessary to run IoT, 5G and AI applications
Selected fog scenarios 1 2 3 Use Cases Traffic Congestion Video Surveillance Smart Buildings ? $160B cost of traffic delays Cloud doesn’t scale to support wide - Safety, security, energy efficiency in US alone scale surveillance (highways, cities, and comfort in buildings is an airports, etc.); rapid security ongoing concern Problem decisions must be made on location Solutions developed in silos hinder HD cameras generate terabytes of Telemetry data is sent from information sharing; data sources data per day thousands of sensors simultaneously are bandwidth intensive and Challenges complex Fog computing ensures sharing of Fog nodes intelligently partition Fog computing creates smart, data from vehicles and along video processing between cameras connected spaces; fog nodes for roadways and cloud, enabling real-time, individual rooms can perform all Fog latency sensitive analytics monitoring and response functions Technology
Why fog? Beyond necessary, it enables growth through new business models Reshape the Industry Create Disruptive Integrate and Enable Rapid Landscape New Service Models Converge Cloud – Fog Development and Services Deployment of Fog Systems and Applications Routers, switches, Players of all sizes, not just For a business to function Rapid deployment of application servers, and massive cloud operators, as a cohesive whole, cloud localized applications storage servers converge build/operate fogs and and fog will converge into shifting from “build the into unified fog nodes offer fog services “ WiFi one common infrastructure cloud and see what Model ” and the rise of for integrated and unified services we can put on it” local/regional fog eco- cloud and fog services: to “find what customers systems and operators? development, deployment, want and quickly put monitoring, management, together a fog for them” security, …
To work, fog computing must have universal interoperability Fog Computing and TCP/IP WWW OpenFog Consortium A standard and universal framework A standard and universal framework A standard and universal framework to to to access files anywhere distribute resources and services distribute packets and Manage, pool, orchestrate, and secure these distributed resources and services Is it necessary to develop a fog-like Was it necessary to create a Was it necessary to develop a HTTP- system for 5G? another for wired TCP/IP-for-wireless telecom? a for-wireless? a HTTP-for-wired? a telecom? another for enterprises? TCP/IP-for-wired? a TCP/IP-for- HTTP-for- enterprise? … NO another for smart city? another for enterprise? … NO manufacturing? … NO
OpenFog Consortium
Proprietary or single vendor Building this necessary solutions slows down adoption interoperability of and innovation. fog-enabled applications requires a collaborative An open architecture will: approach Provide a robust new platform for • product development Increased quality and innovation • through competition in the open environment Lead to a vibrant, growing supplier • ecosystem Accelerate market adoption • Lower system costs •
OpenFog mission Building the Cloud to Things Continuum. Storage Compute Network Control Accelerators Mission Statement: To drive industry and academic leadership in fog computing architecture , testbed development, and a variety of interoperability and composability deliverables that seamlessly leverage cloud and edge architectures to enable end-to-end IoT scenarios.

OpenFog Reference Architecture www.OpenFogConsortium.org/RA
The OpenFog Reference Architecture Framework Unified framework & roadmap to help software developers and 1 system architects create the first generation of open fog computing systems develop compute, network, storage and control technologies for the cloud-to-things continuum. First step in creating standards to enable interoperability in IoT, 5G, Artificial Intelligence and other complex data and network 2 intensive applications. Creates a common language for fog computing and will help unify 3 the edge/fog ecosystem under a single, interoperable, testable set of hardware and software standards.
Key pillars of the OpenFog architecture framework The pillars describe requirements to every part of the fog supply chain: component manufacturers, system vendors, software providers, application developers. Storage Compute Accelerators Network Control Security Scalability Open Autonomy RAS Agility Hierarchy Programmability • Trust • Localized • Resource visibility • Flexible • Reliability • Tactical & • Fully cloud • Programmable • Attestation command, control & control • Cognition • Availability strategic decision enabled SW/HW • Privacy & processing • White box decision & agility • Serviceability making • Computational & • Virtualization & • Orchestration making • Value of data • Data to wisdom System multi-tenant & Analytics • Interop & Data • Autonomy at all • App Fluidity • Avoidance of normalization levels network taxes

A closer look at fog nodes • They form a mesh to provide load balancing, resilience, fault tolerance, and minimization of cloud communication. • They communicate laterally (peer to peer, east to west) and communicate up and down (north to south) • Are able to discover, trust, and utilize the services of another node in order to sustain reliability- Fog nodes in a Smart City: Buildings, neighborhoods & regions are connected to provide an infrastructure that may be optimized for service delivery. availability-serviceability
