The fog computing market, valued at $22.3 million in 2017, will expand at an explosive rate and grow to $203.5 million over the next five years. Fog computing is an extension of cloud computing to adjust to the emerging Internet of things. It uses distributed computer resources located closer to local devices to handle processes that demand rapid processing, with other, less time-sensitive processes delegated to more remote cloud servers. Fog systems can also be used to keep device data securely in-house and away from vulnerable pubic networks.”]
