Telecom operators have recently started to deploy massive computing and storage resources at the very edge of their access networks, hence evolving their infrastructures into large, distributed, and capillary computing environments, capable of placing applications very close to users and terminals and well-suited to effectively fulfill the challenging requirements for delay-sensitive applications. Edge computing is the emerging paradigm that pervasively brings computing in the environment, by shifting processing from data centers to the network edge, allowing a large class of applications in growing fields, like Big Data and the Internet of Things, to be deployed in a very effective way. In this paper, we propose middleware for running applications over heterogeneous environments, made of telecom networks and legacy data centers. We briefly review an emerging architecture for edge computing and describe an integrated solution for developing and deploying modular applications in an automatic way.

Abstract
Telecom operators have recently started to deploy massive computing and storage resources at the very edge of their access networks, hence evolving their infrastructures into large, distributed, and capillary computing environments, capable of placing applications very close to users and terminals and well-suited to effectively fulfill the challenging requirements for delay-sensitive applications. Edge computing is the emerging paradigm that pervasively brings computing in the environment, by shifting processing from data centers to the network edge, allowing a large class of applications in growing fields, like Big Data and the Internet of Things, to be deployed in a very effective way. In this paper, we propose middleware for running applications over heterogeneous environments, made of telecom networks and legacy data centers. We briefly review an emerging architecture for edge computing and describe an integrated solution for developing and deploying modular applications in an automatic way.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
