A Comparative Study on Cloud Computing, Edge Computing and Fog Computing

Abstract

In the recent era, Cloud computing has emerged as a high demanding technology. Apart from the cloud computing, edge and fog computing also becoming popular. Cloud computing was developed to provide steady and expansible services to end-users as well as industries. The merger of cloud computing with smart devices brings us into a new version of computing. Presently, Edge computing and fog computing techniques are flattering the world after cloud computing, which has all matured with the limitations in cloud. The objective of this study is to examine the current trends and concepts in detail, also, to provide a comparative study for the fog computing, edge computing, and cloud computing. This study includes few features, application, advantages as well as disadvantages, and the contrast between these technologies and how every one of them is effective for different applications.
