Industry 4.0: Minimizing Downtime Risk with Resilient Edge Computing

whitePaper | August 19, 2020

Industry 4.0 makes manufacturing “smart” through emerging technology innovations such as data analytics, autonomous robotics, and AI. These technologies drive increased productivity and performance throughout the value chain. These datadriven innovations require information technology (IT) systems deployed on-premise, often referred to as edge IT or edge computing. This edge IT can increase the risk of downtime for automation systems in some cases.

Industrial IoT platform: Make vs. Buy

whitePaper | August 1, 2020

The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) in manufacturing is now an imperative to staying competitive. This means that becoming a digital enterprise is a requirement, as Bain & Company estimates the IIoT to have a $200B market potential by 2021. Organizations face a choice of building their own IoT platform or buying a pre-built platform. Read this joint Microsoft and Siemens white paper, "Make vs. Buy: Understanding the Tradeoffs Between a Build-Your-Own and Pre-Built Industrial IoT Platform," to learn the advantages and disadvantages of each approach, and get an understanding of how other manufacturers have gotten started.
