FOG COMPUTING

FOG COMPUTING
Fog computing is a term created by Cisco that refers to extendingcloud computing to the edge of an enterprise's network. Also known as Edge Computing or fogging, fog computing facilitates the operation of compute, storage and networking services between end devices and cloud computing data centers.
Cisco introduced its fog computing vision in January 2014 as a way of bringing cloud computing capabilities to the edge of the network and as a result, closer to the rapidly growing number of connected devices and applications that consume cloud services and generate increasingly massive amounts of data.
By handling these services that make up the Internet of Things (IoT) at the network edge, data can in many cases be processed more efficiently than if it needed to be sent to the cloud for processing.

Google has now confirmed that  Android M is Android 6.0 Marshmallow . The third and final version of the Android M developer preview has also just been released, alongside the Android 6.0 SDK. Read on for everything you need to know about Android 6.0 Marshmallow and the Android M developer preview 3. Android 6.0 Marshmallow The Google Developers blog  post  didn't mention many specifics for the Android 6.0 Marshmallow release, so details are still relatively sparse. It did say that the final Android 6.0 Marshmallow release date would be "later this fall", but we kind of already knew that.
