Industrial Iot Platforms
Industrial internet of things (Industrial IoT or IIoT) platforms use smart sensors and actuators to gather real-time data to enhance industrial and manufacturing processes. IIoT is a set of integrated software capabilities that aggregates data from all the devices used in manufacturing into a centralized environment. These devices, which include hardware, software systems, sensors, and other data points, gather and share data, bridging the gap between systems, machines, and people.
What Small and Midsize Businesses Need to Know About Industrial Iot Platforms
What distinguishes industrial IoT from IoT is the combination of information technology and operations technology, distinctive to manufacturing and industrial applications. Industrial companies can use industrial IoT platforms to power digital transformation. IIoT platforms help manufacturers gain insights into factors impacting quality control, downtime, production (output), and waste.
