随着物联网（IoT）设备逐渐进入我们的生活，一些云服务提供商（CSP）已经开发了物联网网关平台（SDK），仅将IoT设备连接到各自的云。这些网关具有1）繁琐的物联网设备配置; 2）不灵活的物联网数据管理;以及3）不支持/几乎不支持跨供应商边缘计算和云分析。我们将这些商业网关SDK称为以云为中心。在本文中，我们研究了最先进的供应商锁定的物联网网关解决方案和方法，并通过一个称为VeerEdge的进化框架提出了一个以边缘为中心的范例，用于开发物联网网关。我们利用网络边缘的计算和存储功能，实现基于边缘的设备和物联网服务管理和数据处理。我们利用多个云服务的可用性进行“最佳”物联网数据分析。评估结果表明，与最先进的工业物联网网关相比，VeerEdge在延迟、CPU和RAM使用方面的开销可以忽略不计。
As the plethora of Internet of Things (IoT) devices gradually make their way into our lives, several Cloud Service Providers (CSPs) have developed IoT gateway platforms (SDKs) that solely connects IoT devices to their respective cloud. Such gateways have 1) cumbersome IoT device configuration; 2) inflexible IoT data managements; and 3) support no/little cross-vendor edge computation and cloud analytics. We term these commercial gateway SDKs as cloud-centric. In this paper, we study the state-of-the-art vendor-locked IoT Gateway solutions and approaches and propose an edge-centric paradigm through an evolutionary framework, dubbed VeerEdge for developing IoT gateways. We leverage computing and storage capabilities at the network edge for edge-based device & IoT service management and data processing. We exploit availability of multiple cloud services for "best" IoT data analytics. Evaluation results show that VeerEdge achieves this with negligible overhead in terms of latency, CPU and RAM usage when compared to state-of-the-art industrial IoT gateways.
