N1 - Funding Information:
container migration was used to reduce data transactions between the nodes in container image layers. Furthermore, CGM was applied with LLM to achieve zero packet loss while reducing the network migration time by more than 10% compared to conventional methods. The overall results show that the LLM, CGM, and O2NCGM reduce the migration time by more than 10% for containers with image sizes higher than 400 MBs while keeping the migration time and service downtime less than 10 s. Additionally, O2NCGM provides consistency guaranteed one to N migration to support service distribution under different network loads. Acknowledgment These research results were obtained from the commissioned research by National Institute of Information and Communications Technology (NICT, Grant Number 22004), JAPAN.

N2 - Smart Community (SC) uses IoT sensors to provide smart grid control, traffic management, and similar IoT services. These services expect to run at the network edge or fog layer to provide low latency network services, encapsulate citizens' private information, support low-cost IoT terminals from cyber-attacks, and support other cutting-edge fog and edge services. SC edge is a service platform that supports edge/fog services for IoT terminals by using Docker containers. Initially, SC edge/fog computing nodes did not support the function of service migration. However, service migration is necessary to support remote deployment and service distribution in SC networks. The existing container migration techniques focus mainly on resource utilization. However, SC services should handle loss-free data stream processing and order-preservation of network packets to gather IoT sensor data after migration. In addition, SC services require one-to-many migration to support high throughput loads when required. Therefore, this paper focuses on enhancing SC service flexibility by introducing migration for relocatable and network consistency guaranteed containerized services. SC edge proposes multiple container migration techniques that are suitable for network services. The proposed techniques can improve resource consumption, guarantee network traffic consistency, and apply one-to-many migration patterns. Layer leveraging migration (LLM) reduces the overall migration time by 10.8% for an elastic search Docker container than available Docker migration methods. Additionally, consistency guaranteed migration (CGM) is proposed to guarantee network consistency. However, CGM consumes additional resources compared to LLM for IoT data management. Finally, One to N Consistency Guaranteed Migration (O2NCGM) is proposed to support one-to-many migration with data consistency that shows similar performance to CGM.
