TLDR
Fog computing is designed to overcome limitations in traditional systems, the cloud, and even edge computing to handle the growing amount of data that is generated by the Internet of Things.
Abstract
The Internet of Things (IoT) could enable innovations that enhance the quality of life, but it generates unprecedented amounts of data that are difficult for traditional systems, the cloud, and even edge computing to handle. Fog computing is designed to overcome these limitations.
