Latest Achievements
mF2C will soon release its IT-2 architecture that will leverage all existing, and potentially available, resources from edge to cloud when executing a service.
One of the main objectives of IT-2 is to give support for clouds transparently for the end users. Business requirements have been also taken into account in order to offer a solution that can cover market expectations and needs. Final architecture will be soon released, and its implementation will start in order to provide a ready-to-use coordinated management framework. |
