Due to limited storage and processing power, IoT (Internet of Things) devices utilize the concept of cloud computing by offload their work to the cloud servers. With the increasing functions and daily usage of the smart IoT and devices, demand for high quality, low latency, real time services has increased. With the inability of the cloud computing to fulfill these demands, a new paradigm is introduced by the Cisco named as fog computing. It extends cloud computing by offering location based services and virtualized resources at the edge of the network. In this paper, I am presenting the basic concept, characteristics, challenges and applications of the fog computing.
