Challenges of Connecting Edge and Cloud Computing: A Security and Forensic Perspective
Christian Esposito, Aniello Castiglione, Florin Pop, Kim‐Kwang Raymond Choo · IEEE Cloud Computing · 2017
A key benefit of connecting edge and cloud computing is the capability to achieve high-throughput under high concurrent accesses, mobility support, real-time processing guarantees, and data persistency. For example, the elastic provisioning and storage capabilities provided by cloud computing allow us to cope with scalability, persistency and reliability requirements and to adapt the infrastructure capacity to the exacting needs based on the amount of generated data.
