Abstract

In the upcoming year, the growth of IoT will tremendously increase. The factors like limited storage, low communication capability, less data storage, and limited computational power are associated with IoT devices. By the year 2025, almost 80 billion devices will be linked to IoT (Van 2017). Many issues arise when users and IoT devices continue to share computing and networking resources remotely. On the other hand, cloud computing supports massive storage capacity and high computing/processing capability. IoT devices produce a mass variety of data, these data need to be processed quickly and stored in high-capacity storage in a heterogeneous environment. Integrating IoT and Cloud Computing, the system becomes more powerful, robust, and intelligent, solving the user’s problem more effectively and efficiently. In the pervasive and ubiquitous environment, there need to be more secure web services that can interact with IoT devices and sensors through cloud computing interactively. IoT-Cloud convergence has many challenges like security, data formatting, load balancing, energy consumption, etc. This paper analyses some of the issues mentioned above.
