Edge computing

A new approach to the convergence of industrial technology and IT

The major cloud providers have now also recognized that a large proportion of IT will not be located in data centers in the future. However, the promise of end-to-end edge-to-cloud environments will only be fulfilled if a convergence of industrial and information technology is established at the edge.

Data acquisition and processing

Mobile application scenarios in production

Mobile working via any end device and almost anywhere makes company-wide processes more transparent and productive - from goods receipt to maintenance. However, mobile technologies only bring the desired productivity gains if they access the shared database of the company's ERP system.
