Abstract

It has been determined that blockchain technology is the best option for improving current computing systems in many ways. Integrating blockchain into cloud, fog and IoT offers significant potential to boost both performance and security. How blockchain technology integrates with already-live computing technologies and makes possible computing re-engineering is an open subject. This article delves into current initiatives that aim to merge blockchain technology with cloud and fog computing to solve this problem. This work roughly addresses three technological dimensions. In this work, we first consider the service model and review an emerging cloud-relevant blockchain service model, Blockchain-as-a-Service (BaaS); then, we evaluate the performance of computing that supports or participates in blockchain from a hardware and software perspective; and finally, we consider security to be a key technical dimension and evaluate both access control and searchable encryption schemes. The article concludes that using blockchain in cloud, fog and IoT increases security and improves data management without decreasing the tangible efficiency of the system.
