Abstract
The expanding amounts of information created by Internet of Things (IoT) devices places a strain on cloud computing, which is often used for data analysis and storage. This paper investigates a different approach based on edge cloud applications, which involves data filtering and processing before being delivered to a backup cloud environment. This Paper suggest designing and implementing a low cost, low power cluster of Single Board Computers (SBC) for this purpose, reducing the amount of data that must be transmitted elsewhere, using Big Data ideas and technology. An Apache Hadoop and Spark Cluster that was used to run a test application was containerized and deployed using a Raspberry Pi cluster and Docker. To obtain system data and analyze the setup's performance a Prometheus-based stack monitoring and alerting solution in the cloud based market is employed. This Paper assesses the system's complexity and demonstrates how containerization can improve fault tolerance and maintenance ease, allowing the suggested solution to be used in industry. An evaluation of the overall performance is presented to highlight the capabilities and limitations of the suggested architecture, taking into consideration the suggested solution's resource use in respect to device restrictions.
