Smart Fog-Hub Service

Business applications of IoT have greater economic impact than consumer applications. While consumer uses of IoT receive significant attention and show a tremendous potential for creating value, there is even greater potential value from IoT use in business-to-business applications. This happens more frequently in environments high concentration of IoT devices. The airport is such an example. For this reason, the use case extendes the concept of "cloud hub" to a new concept of "fog hub", driven by real market needs.

The deployment of the mF2C framework in the Smart Fog Hub system leverages the mF2C capabilities to optimally orchestrate resources in a fog-to-cloud approach, balancing processing loads and communications to reduce latency and guarantee real-time response. It gets advantage from the security- and privacy-by-design features of the mF2C platform to guarantee the confidentiality of personal data.
