Abstract EN
Container-based virtualization offers advantages such as high performance, resource efficiency, and agile environment.
These advantages make Internet of Things (IoT) device management easy.
Although container-based virtualization has already been introduced to IoT devices, the different network modes of containers and their performance issues have not been addressed.
Since the network performance is an important factor in IoT, the analysis of the container network performance is essential.
In this study, we analyze the network performance of containers on an IoT device, Raspberry Pi 3.
The results show that the network performance of containers is lower than that of the native Linux, with an average performance difference of 6% and 18% for TCP and UDP, respectively.
In addition, the network performance of containers varies depending on the network mode.
When a single container runs, bridge mode achieves higher performance than host mode by 25% while host mode shows better performance than bridge mode by 45% in the multicontainer environment.
