The Cloud-Edge continuum has lately exponentially grown, thanks to the increase in the availability of computational power in Edge Devices, and the better capabilities of communication networks. In this paper, two use cases, in eHealth and environmental domain, are presented in order to provide an application context to exemplify the approaches driving the analysis and selection of Cloud-Edge architectural solutions and patterns, the structural design, the allocation and deployment of distributed applications targeted to the Cloud Continuum. The main focus of this paper is the comparison of the architectural choices made for the two use cases, and how they have been driven by typical non-functional requirements, guiding the adoption of a Cloud Continuum solution.

Abstract
The Cloud-Edge continuum has lately exponentially grown, thanks to the increase in the availability of computational power in Edge Devices, and the better capabilities of communication networks. In this paper, two use cases, in eHealth and environmental domain, are presented in order to provide an application context to exemplify the approaches driving the analysis and selection of Cloud-Edge architectural solutions and patterns, the structural design, the allocation and deployment of distributed applications targeted to the Cloud Continuum. The main focus of this paper is the comparison of the architectural choices made for the two use cases, and how they have been driven by typical non-functional requirements, guiding the adoption of a Cloud Continuum solution.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
