The fog computing paradigm has gained significant popularity in meeting the emerging demand for delay-sensitive applications. A fog computing paradigm provides low latency, reduces communication delay, and increases system energy efficiency. Like cloud computing, the fog computing framework also relies on virtualization. In a fog-enabled virtualization environment, challenges of system failure, hardware maintenance and load balancing can be addressed by facilitating the migration of fog-virtualized components. To address this issue, in this study, we first proposed an experimental testbed to facilitate the migration of running nodes using container-based virtualization technology. Furthermore, we discussed recent research challenges and trends for fog-enabled container-based virtualization technology.
