Computer network engineering is a technology discipline within engineering that deals with the design, implementation, and management of computer networks. These systems contain both physical components, such as routers , switches, cables, and some logical elements, such as protocols and network services .
Software-defined networking (SDN) is an approach to network management that uses abstraction to enable dynamic and programmatically efficient network configuration to create grouping and segmentation while improving network performance and monitoring in a manner more akin to cloud computing than to traditional network management. [1]
Multi-access edge computing (MEC), formerly mobile edge computing, is an ETSI-defined [1] network architecture concept that enables cloud computing capabilities and an IT service environment at the edge of the cellular network [2] [3] and, more in general at the edge of any network. The basic idea behind MEC is that by running applications and ...
Generally, the cloud network layer should offer: High bandwidth and low latency; Allowing users to have uninterrupted access to their data and applications. [13] Agile network; On-demand access to resources requires the ability to move quickly and efficiently between servers and possibly even clouds. Network security
In software engineering, containerization is operating-system–level virtualization or application-level virtualization over multiple network resources so that software applications can run in isolated user spaces called containers in any cloud or non-cloud environment, regardless of type or vendor.

Since then, CDNs have grown to serve a large portion of the Internet content today, including web objects (text, graphics and scripts), downloadable objects (media files, software, documents), applications (e-commerce, portals), live streaming media, on-demand streaming media, and social media sites. [3] CDNs are a layer in the internet ...
Mobile Cloud Computing (MCC) is the combination of cloud computing and mobile computing to bring rich computational resources to mobile users, network operators, as well as cloud computing providers. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] The ultimate goal of MCC is to enable execution of rich mobile applications on a plethora of mobile devices, with a rich user ...
