The 181 zettabytes of data generated annually by over 13 billion devices exceeds global internet bandwidth, posing challenges for cloud computing due to high costs, latency, and security concerns. Edge computing processes data locally, offering efficient, secure analysis without constant connectivity. Barbara’s Industrial Edge Management and Orchestration Platform simplifies managing this infrastructure by providing cloud-like capabilities on-premises and bridging the IT-OT gap.

One of the most transformative technologies that have emerged in recent years is software containerization, which revolutionizes the way industrial companies develop, deploy, and manage their software solutions. Kubernetes is very useful for large, cloud-dependent workloads like web applications, but it is not optimal for smaller, more industrial-oriented workloads that must operate in complex, isolated environments.‍ In this article we explain why.

This is the second article in our series exploring the challenges of Digital Transformation in industrial companies on their path to full IT-OT convergence. In this edition, we focus on the Data Journey, the process of transforming raw data into intelligent, AI-driven organization.

Just as Data Teams embark on their Data Journey, Infrastructure Teams must navigate their own Digital Infrastructure Journey to enable this transformation. This article explores the challenges of IT-OT convergence in industrial companies. Stay tuned as we break down each stage of this evolution and uncover the key steps to a seamless transition.

When implementing a data-based strategy, it all starts with the Data. One of the typical sources to extract data are IoT devices. Knowing which IoT communication protocols exist and how to use them for data communication is essential as they are the ones that make data gathering from them possible.

As organizations' appetite for seizing opportunities at the edge grows, data-driven industries must carefully select the right infrastructure to seamlessly scale from initial implementations to large-scale deployments across multiple facilities.This article explores why an Edge Management and Orchestration tool is essential for efficiently and securely scaling edge computing initiatives.
