The fog5 is a framework for end-2-end edge computing (MEC), compatible with ETSI OSM, consisting of the following two buildings blocks with respective abstraction API:
- A so called “fog Infrastructure Manager” (FIM) virtualize the hardware infrastructure, such as computational, communication, storage and I/O resources. It is like a Kubernetes cluster.
- A so called “fog OrchEstration unit” (FOrcE) sharing key-value bags without any control node e.g., via Eclipse Zenoh, aka “state distribution storage”. One Force is shared between multiple FIM.
The key concepts consists of:
