Abstract:

Firstly, the basic concept of edge computing (EC) and its current state of research were introduced.Moreover, the design requirements of edge computing platforms from multiple perspectives were discussed.Then, four typical open source platforms were presented in detail, and their similarities and differences in terms of application areas, deployment methods were analyzed.Later, with regard to two typical use cases, their installations and advantages were summarized and analyzed.Finally, key challenges such as the cooperation among edge computing platforms, security and standardization were discussed.

Key words: edge computing, open source platforms, comparative study, use case
