Container-Based Network Architecture for Mobility, Energy and Security Management as a Service in IoT Environments

摘要

Internet of Things is being used in every field of life. The increased IoT devices are building heterogeneous networks which result in introducing some serious challenges. The presence of mobile nodes makes the network unstable, the protocols used in these network do not offer the required security level and network growth results in more energy consumption. On the other hand, the Container-Based solutions are getting huge attention because they are lightweight then Virtual Machines (VMs). They are reusable, flexible and offer dynamic allocation of resources. In this article, we have proposed a Container-Based architecture which offers Mobility, Energy and Security Management as a Service (MESMaaS). Our main objective is to implement MESMaaS at the core of the network to address Network issues and to achieve improved network performance in terms of network life time, network stability, re-transmission of data, signaling cost, packet loss, data & network security and other communication issues.
