In this paper a health monitoring system that supports edge, fog, and cloud computing architecture is implemented. Edge, fog computing is all about bringing the power of the cloud closer to where the data is being generated. It combines edges computing, fog computing and cloud computing to create a distributed network that can handle data processing, storage and analysis at the stage of edge and fog level of the network. This means that instead of sending all the data to a centralized cloud server, it can be processed and analyzed right where it's being generated, reducing latency and improving response times. The system utilizes IoT sensors as edge devices to collect real-time health data from individuals. This data is collected by the edge device, then processed and analyzed by fog devices and cloud computing is indeed used in health monitoring system for storage. In this health monitoring system, the IoT sensors act as the "eyes and ears" of the system, collecting health data such as heartbeat and temperature. Therefore, combination of cloud computing and IoT can provide the best performance for users. Cloud Computing nowadays provides lifesaving healthcare. applications by collecting data from bedside devices viewing patient information and diagnosis in real time. There may be some concerns about security and other issues with the patient’s data, but utilization of IoT and cloud technologies in the healthcare industry would open a new era in the field of healthcare.
