Fog computing is a distributed computing method that moves data storage and computation closer to the network edge. This is done by placing many IoT devices in the network edge.  Here are some basics of fog computing: Fog nodes: The basic units of fog computing.

Fog computing is a distributed computing method that moves data storage and computation closer to the network edge. This is done by placing many IoT devices in the network edge. 

Here are some basics of fog computing:
Fog nodes: The basic units of fog computing. They can be network devices that use dedicated servers, computational servers, or processing capabilities to coordinate underlying devices.
Resource manager: Independent nodes that make up fog computing must operate in synchronization. The resource manager arranges data transfer between nodes and the cloud. It also allocates and reallocates resources to different nodes.
Data processors: Programs that run on fog nodes. They filter, trim, and sometimes even reconstruct faulty data that flows from end devices.
Edge computing: A component of fog computing that refers to data being analyzed at the point of creation, or locally.
Resource monitoring service: Plays a vital role in providing advanced services such as scheduling, scaling and migration. 

Fog computing can be used in the following scenarios:
When only selected data is required to send to the cloud
When the data should be analyzed within a fraction of seconds
When IoT applications generate a large amount of data that requires processing
