The most effective industrial IoT platform for your organization is one that you create in-house. To enhance your IIoT solution, consider incorporating services and platforms from top providers such as Microsoft and Amazon, along with versatile components for enterprise data and the source code of production applications. You don’t have to begin from scratch when building your industrial IoT platform. By utilizing pre-integrated, IT-compatible digital solution components available for AWS, Microsoft Azure, and other cloud platforms, you can generate added value and improve efficiency with tools designed for rapid device integration and AI-driven edge analytics. Moreover, our flexible smart product engine takes it further by tackling prevalent IoT challenges, offering templates and source code for user interface dashboards, user management systems, asset lifecycle tracking, predictive maintenance, geofencing, and alerts. This facilitates rapid integration of IIoT data with digital enterprise technologies, devices, and workflows, ultimately empowering businesses to fully leverage the IoT landscape. By adopting this holistic approach, companies can achieve smarter operations, enhance decision-making processes, and stay competitive in a rapidly evolving market.

The immense quantity and swift production of industrial data present significant challenges in achieving accurate capture. Even when successful, this data frequently lacks the essential context and usability required for practical application. Additionally, with operational data often locked within diverse devices or contained in separate systems, data scientists encounter substantial obstacles in data preparation and find it difficult to extract valuable insights aimed at enhancing industrial performance. FactoryTalk® Edge Gateway™ software directly addresses these challenges, providing actionable insights at both the plant and enterprise levels to support the digital transformation of the IIoT landscape. By streamlining and automating the processes of collecting, contextualizing, and structuring data from industrial equipment right at the source, it guarantees high levels of data integrity from the outset. This software establishes a solid foundation for the effective integration of IT and OT across the enterprise, empowering personnel ranging from shop floor workers to executive leaders to make informed and strategic decisions that promote operational excellence. As a result, this technology not only improves decision-making capabilities but also positions organizations to embrace future growth and foster innovation in an increasingly competitive landscape. The ongoing evolution of industrial practices hinges on such advancements that facilitate smarter operations and drive a culture of continuous improvement.
