Outside System Connectivity

The Internet of Everything (IoE) is continuing to expand in applications that demand higher volumes of higher performance communication. The IoE was initially defined as a wide range of Internet of Things (IoT) devices communicating with cloud computing that store data and which was analyzed with applications and actions communicated. As IoE was used for a broader range of applications, some applications had unacceptably slow performance due to the latency of communicating with the cloud. To overcome this latency limitation, some applications added local storage and processing close to the IoT devices and network, which is referred to as fog computing.
