Fog Computing, agricultura, salud, ciudades inteligentes, mejores prácticasResumen
El Fog Computing se ha convertido en una tecnología clave para mejorar el procesamiento y almacenamiento de datos en la agricultura, la salud y las ciudades inteligentes, acercando la computación al punto de generación de datos. Este estudio lleva a cabo una revisión sistemática sobre la aplicación de esta tecnología en los sectores mencionados, con el propósito de identificar las mejores prácticas basándose en casos de éxito, empleando la metodología PRISMA. Se examinaron 43 investigaciones publicadas entre 2020 y 2024, evaluando aspectos como la seguridad, interoperabilidad, escalabilidad y eficiencia operativa. A partir del análisis, se identificaron beneficios clave y desafíos pendientes en la adopción del Fog Computing, lo que permitió proponer un conjunto de mejores prácticas que abordan aspectos críticos, como la interoperabilidad, la optimización del procesamiento distribuido y la integración con infraestructuras existentes. Esta propuesta tiene como objetivo ofrecer un marco de referencia para la adopción de Fog Computing en sectores clave, con el propósito de asistir a las organizaciones en la optimización de sus procesos y en el aprovechamiento más eficaz de los beneficios que brinda esta innovación.
