Abstract

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a network of expedients that can intuiting, collecting, managing and communicating data over the Internet without human intervention. It is a concept that connects to nearby objects without user intervention, using a wired or wireless network. In IoT, objects interact and share information to provide the user or users with advanced, intelligent services. In the field of edge computing, data engendered by IoT devices can be processed closer to where it was created, and as an alternative to sending data to data centers or data centers in more ways. New research and customer support in selecting seemly edge computing structures for particular solicitations. This paper gives a complete overview of the methods of introduced power adding structures, comparing Open Source devices through their survival method. Finally, this work sheds light on smart home application tools using Edge Computing Systems and also explores the challenges posed by Edge Computing Systems.
