Abstract

Nowadays, wireless sensor networks have become a widespread entity in human life, it can be seen as one of the most essential technologies in 21st century in which sensors are placed in distributed manner to monitor physical and ecological environments such as temperature, pressure etc. WSNs have their own applications such as healthcare, military, environment monitoring, and manufacturing; but this technology is constrained by limited resources in terms of memory, scalability, energy, computation, communication and effective management of the large number of WSNs data. Shortcomings of wireless sensors networks draws our attention to integrate them with a technology that can provide great, elastic and enormous storage infrastructure for real-time processing and storing of the WSN data. In this era, cloud computing proves itself as an inspiring technology as it provides immense computing, storage, and software facilities in a scalable and virtualized fashion at low cost. This paper presents a comprehensive survey for the various middleware available to integrate sensors with cloud. It also describes the wireless sensors network and cloud computing. The issues in existing middleware and the conclusion extracted are also discussed in this paper.
