Deploying a web service application on the EdgeX open edge server: An evaluation of its viability for IoT services

الخلاصة

With the advent of 5G and the promise of 6G, edge computing is becoming increasingly important. Edge computing involves the proximity of computational resources to the devices and sensors responsible for data generation, reducing delay and improving real time data processing capabilities. EdgeX is an openly available framework designed for edge computing. that provides a platform for building IoT services and applications. In this paper, we evaluate the EdgeX open edge server for use in IoT services. We first deploy a web service application into the edge using a specific port, and then test the EdgeX server to see whether it can be used as a reliable and effective open-source edge server. Our results show that the EdgeX server is capable of supporting IoT services and can be used as an open-source edge server for a variety of applications. We conclude that EdgeX is a valuable resource for developing edge computing solutions, and that the open edge server can significantly contribute to the advancement of forthcoming IoT service innovations. © 2024 Elsevier B.V..
