Abstract
With Network Function Virtualization (NFV) platforms gaining ground, we question the combination of NFV and Single Board Computers (SBCs) in terms of compatibility, reliability, and energy consumption. A mini cluster of SBCs is used to develop a scalable and resilient energy monitoring application. The application is employed to discover the energy demands of a NFV platform in modern SBCs, and build the energy profile of the devices and the deployed services. We use the results and the added knowledge from building the application to strengthen the argument that SBC clusters can support virtualized service deployment. This evidence, alongside the rich gamut of characteristics that SBCs hold, proves that they are a viable option for edge components of a fog network. Our results show that running different virtualised processes offers added functionality, resilience and scalability without heavily sacrificing energy consumption.
