Industrial IoT is transforming the way plant environments operate by enabling hyper-connected networks that provide value through smart factories, predictive maintenance, energy management, remote monitoring, and more. This technology empowers industries to optimize productivity, increase efficiency, and reduce costs.
As the number of connected devices increases, so does the amount of data generated. This ability to analyze data, extract insights from it and make autonomous decisions based on the analysis is the essence of Artificial Intelligence (AI) of things, also known as AIoT.
Edge Mesh proposes that all computing tasks and data be shared using a meshed network of edge devices and routers, offering many advantages, such as distributed processing, low latency, fault tolerance, greater scalability and enhanced security and privacy. These benefits are paramount for critical applications that require real-time processing, increased reliability or mobility support.
Four out of ten Spanish companies will double their investments in Edge Computing by 2022. Next we will analyze: Why is this technology making such a strong impact, what advantages does it have for organizations, what is its degree of maturity in Spain and how to scale its deployment in an efficient and simple way?
Advances in Artificial Intelligence continue to act as a driver of the industry's digital transition. With the power of AI and analytics pushing into IT operations, it is only a matter of time before artificial intelligence is integrated throughout all industrial processes.
The growth of Edge technology is causing a revolution on the path to Industry 4.0, and the need has arisen to define different parts of the Edge and their functionalities. Concepts such as thin edge and thick edge have emerged from the exponential growth of Edge Computing technology, which industry experts claim is the key to the digital transformation of critical industrial infrastructures.
