FogBus2 Framework

Abstract

FogBus2 as a new python-based framework, developed from scratch, offers a lightweight and distributed container-based framework for the integration of IoT-enabled systems with heterogeneous multi-cloud and multi-edge resources. Also, several IoT applications, ranging from AI-based applications (e.g., Face Detection) to small-sized games (e.g., GameOfLife) are implemented and integrated with this framework.

Major Contributions

The major contributions of this work are as follow:

  • A distributed containerized framework in python language that integrates IoT enabled systems, Edge/Fog, and Cloud infrastructure to support various types of IoT applications ranging from latency-critical to computation-intensive ones.
  • Multi platform support. The docker image of framework's components and applications are built for different platroms, such as Intel, AMD, ARM, etc.
  • Supporting different topology models for communication.
  • Scheduling mechanism and several scheduling policies currently implemented and integrated with this framework.
  • Dynamic scalability. There are some implemented mechanisms to dynamically scale the framework components based on the dynamics of the users' requests or the computing environment.
  • Dynamic resource discovery.
  • Dynamic profiling of resources and networking that are configurable.
  • Automatic Virtual Private Network (VPN) support.
  • Distributed multi-database platform support: The current version supports MariaDB and Oracle Autonomous Database.
  • Performance evaluation of FogBus2 framework in terms of container startup time, average docker image size, runtime container RAM usage, response time of applications, etc.

Developers

FogBus2 framework is developed by:

  • Qifan Deng
  • Mohammad Goudarzi
  • Rajkumar Buyya
