Performance Evaluation of Containerized Systems before and after using Kubernetes for Smart Farm Visualization Platform based on LoRaWAN

To satisfy food demand following the increase in population, smart farms have emerged with Internet of Things (IoT), and most smart farms gather data using Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) protocols such as LoRa. In this paper, a platform is designed to check real-time information of the smart farms based on LoRaWAN. It is intended to confirm efficiency by applying Kubernetes in this platform. Experiments are conducted to compare CPU usage, Request Per Seconds (RPS), and response times before and after using Kubernetes.
