Abstract

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a concept that permits the integration of all objects into an Internet environment. IoT has spawned numerous intelligent applications and services to benefit organizations, society, and consumer experiences. On the other hand, traditional computing methods are incapable of handling the demands of these services. The advent of cloud computing methods that provides software, platform, and infrastructure such as services have realized these applications. However, one of the critical obstacles of real-time cloud-based IoT applications is service response time. Edge computing solutions have been developed to address these issues. In this work, we provide a comprehensive survey of driving enforce edge computing for IoT applications on aspects of the research timeline, applications, vision, challenges, and open research issues. Through this, we highlight the benefits of edge computing over cloud computing in almost domains. This study will contribute to driving empowerment intelligence to the edge of networks to form the next intelligent edge era.
