Industrial IoT: What is Missing and What is Next? - ERP Spain.com - España y América Latina

451 Research has covered the adoption of Industrial IoT for several years, and it is a significant area to consider both for existing IT providers and for those industries looking to automate further. IIoT has significant long-term equipment installations, brownfield sites, as well as major new installations adopting all of the latest technology, under its umbrella. This area also has the ongoing organizational struggles between Operational Technology (OT) and IT, making projects more complicated to build and deploy. There are also some noticeable gaps in the approaches to IIoT and its related technologies that may not have been dealing with adequately. During this webinar, Ian Hughes, Senior Analyst for IoT, VR and AR at 451 Research, will describe the current state of play of IIoT and then introduce some key challenges and opportunities in the future. He will touch on the challenge of defining architectures in IIoT, and testing and implementing solutions. He will further highlight the importance of uniting OT and IT and the role of people in what is often portrayed as a pure automation play, as well as cover how front-line workers will need to engage with IIoT on the shop floor, using tools such as Augmented Reality (AR) to get the full benefit of this digital transformation wave. The webinar will be of use to those in the IT industry who will benefit from the OT perspective and vice versa.
