Cloud Computing Concept. The Future - Everything from SocketCLOUD COMPUTING

FOG COMPUTING: One Big Fat Cloud Computing Prediction For 2018. For 2018, expect to see cloud computing morph into a new, more distributed form, which many observers and some vendors (mainly Cisco) are referring to as “fog computing.” The US office of National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has weighed in on fog computing with a document of its own, so it can be said that it officially is now a thing. NIST defines fog as “a horizontal, physical or virtual resource paradigm that resides between smart end-devices and traditional cloud or data centers. This paradigm supports vertically-isolated, latency-sensitive applications by providing ubiquitous, scalable, layered, federated, and distributed computing, storage, and network connectivity.” Read more

However, the government is still in the early stages of cloud computing adoption, and despite successful standardization efforts like FedRAMP that have bolstered cloud’s credibility in the federal space, the government has work to do to ensure security, interoperability and portability within and among its federal cloud environments.
