By considering particular parameters which overshadow the resiliency in distributed environments, we found several gaps in the investigated review papers that did not comprehensively touch on significantly related topics as we did. So, based on the resilient and dependable management approaches, we put forward a beneficial evaluation in this regard. As a novel taxonomy of distributed environments, we presented a well-organized classification of distributed systems. At the terminal stage, we selected 37 papers in the research process. We classified our categories into seven divisions and separately investigated each one their main ideas, advantages, challenges, and strategies, checking whether they involved security issues or not, simulation environments, datasets, and their environments to draw a cohesive taxonomy of reliable methods in terms of qualitative in distributed computing environments. This well-performed comparison enables us to evaluate all papers comprehensively and analyze their advantages and drawbacks. The SLR review indicated that security, latency, and fault tolerance are the most frequent parameters utilized in studied papers that show they play pivotal roles in the resiliency management of distributed environments. Most of the articles reviewed were published in 2020 and 2021. Besides, we proposed several future works based on existing deficiencies that can be considered for further studies.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessObjective Deployment OptimizationComputing ArchitectureBlockchainFogInternetIotReliabilitySecurityTaxonomySchemeObjective Deployment OptimizationComputing ArchitectureBlockchainFogInternetDistributed environmentsIotDependabilityReliabilityResiliencySecurityCloud computingTaxonomyEdgeSchemeSLRReview15651600226WOS:00085472070000110.1007/s10586-022-03738-52-s2.0-85138136833N/AQ1
