New generations of cloud applications are increasingly complex and pose lower latency requirements. e la er is forcing the industry to reduce network latency by adding computation nodes near the edge of the network, also known as Fog Computing. To utilize the Fog nodes efficiently, the dynamic placement and migration of application components must be supported. To this end, a Fog- aware application programming and deployment framework, called Foglets, has been proposed. is demonstration shows how the Foglets framework can be easily used to deploy applications in the Fog Computing infrastructure: A video streaming application allows a moving user to continue watching a video on the closest available screen.
