Abstract

The expansion of Internet of Things (IoT) and the evolution in communication technologies have an important promising trend in healthcare domain. By exploring connected medical devices, some healthcare services are moved from the hospital to the home environment and the control of patients is continuous in a comfortable home environment.

Various solutions based on Cloud services and IoT technologies are explored to collect and analyze the patient data. However, availability limitation can arise when transferring huge amounts of patient data from IoT devices onto cloud. To support these challenges, a third layer between the cloud and devices which is known as Edge layer is proposed.

In this paper, we present the benefits of using edge computing for home-based healthcare and we propose an edge-based architecture that enables the medical staff to change the edge layer configuration using a cloud service. We focus specially on the integration of cloud services and edge services to ensure an effective control and monitoring of the patient data.
