One example method includes receiving input concerning a mobile IoT device, and the input includes information about a location of the mobile IoT device, information about whether the mobile IoT device is moving, and, when the mobile IoT device is moving, information about the range, speed, and bearing of the mobile IoT device. Next, the method includes generating a predicted location of the mobile IoT device based on the inputs received, using the predicted location of the mobile IoT device and a map of nodes in an environment where the mobile IoT device is located to make a migration decision concerning an application used by the mobile IoT device, and migrating the application from a present location to a node expected to be accessible by the mobile IoT device when the mobile IoT device reaches the predicted location, and the node and present location are physically separated by a distance.
