Abstract: In the scenarios of Internet of things,large traffic and so on,traditional cloud computing has the advantages of strong resource service ability and the disadvantages of long-distance transmission,and the rising edge computing has the advantages of low transmission delay and the disadvantage of resource limitation.Therefore,cloud-edge collaboration,which combines the advantages of cloud computing and edge computing,has attractedmuch attention.Based on the comprehensive investigation and analysis of the relevant literature on cloud edge collaboration,this paper focuses on the in-depth analysis and discussion of the implementation principles,research ideas and progress of cloud collaboration technologies,such as resource collaboration,data collaboration,intelligent collaboration,business orchestration collaboration,application management collaboration and service colla-boration.And then,it analyzes the role of various collaborative technologies in collaboration and the specific used methods,and compares the results from the aspects of delay,energy consumption and other performance indicators.Finally,the challenges and future development direction of cloud edge collaboration are pointed out.This review is expected to provide a useful reference for the research of cloud-edge collaboration.

Key words: Cloud computing, Cloud-edge collaboration, Data collaboration, Edge computing, Intelligence collaboration, Resource collaboration
