Hello Marcus and Kenn,

I came back to reread this article, and once again I was struck by this paragraph:
--- ---
Fog is simply bringing the cloud’s processing capabilities back to Earth, where all the action is. Think about it; in nature, fog is just a cloud on the ground. So just think of fog computing as the cloud (with all its computing, storage, and application power) settling back down, closer to the ground, or action, and away from a centralized data center.

This is a great way to explain "fog computing". Thanks!

Your "edge computing" explanation is just as great:
--- ---
But what if you take the next step, and embed your data processing capabilities directly into the end devices? That’s edge computing; actually processing data where the action originates, whether that’s on a pole at an intersection, on a patient’s bedside in rehab, or beneath the Stetson in a processing unit of an artificial hero in Westworld.

However, your last paragraph, highlighting the breadth of IoT use cases, puts a spotlight on the large number of places where security will need to play a role in safeguarding our networks.

How much of the security for IoT devices will be provided by intelligent edge fog computing? Is this a topic for exploration in an upcoming post?

Thanks for all the great information!
