A review of the application prospects of cloud-edge-end collaborative technology in freshwater aquaculture

Abstract

This paper reviews the application and potential of cloud-edge-end collaborative (CEEC) technology in the field of freshwater aquaculture, a rapidly developing sector driven by the growing global demand for aquatic products. The sustainable development of freshwater aquaculture has become a critical challenge due to issues such as water pollution and inefficient resource utilization in traditional farming methods. In response to these challenges, the integration of smart technologies has emerged as a promising solution to improve both efficiency and sustainability. Cloud computing and edge computing, when combined, form the backbone of CEEC technology, offering an innovative approach that can significantly enhance aquaculture practices. By leveraging the strengths of both technologies, CEEC enables efficient data processing through cloud infrastructure and real-time responsiveness via edge computing, making it a compelling solution for modern aquaculture. This review explores the key applications of CEEC in areas such as environmental monitoring, intelligent feeding systems, health management, and product traceability. The ability of CEEC technology to optimize the aquaculture environment, enhance product quality, and boost overall farming efficiency highlights its potential to become a mainstream solution in the industry. Furthermore, the paper discusses the limitations and challenges that need to be addressed in order to fully realize the potential of CEEC in freshwater aquaculture. In conclusion, this paper provides researchers and practitioners with valuable insights into the current state of CEEC technology in aquaculture, offering suggestions for future development and optimization to further enhance its contributions to the sustainable growth of freshwater aquaculture.
