The magnificence of the Internet of Things (IoT) lies not in its sheer volume of data and connections but in the timely access to the right data to accomplish goals more reliably, effectively and efficiently.
Software AG’s Digital Business Platform is an integrated set of technologies and tools to manage the Digital Transformation and to implement new business designs. Digital Business Platform can handle any process or data that will be needed in the future digitalization, in order to help customers face the challenges.
| By 2020, more than 50 billion devices will be digitally connected, representing $19 trillion in business opportunity. From the "smart edge", where NI hardware performs local control and data acquisition, to entire networks of intelligent "system of systems," watch the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) take shape. NI provides a single, integrated platform to help enterprises make smarter business decisions using NI software and end-to-end analytics.
NI provides technology to transform vast amounts of Big Analog Data gathered by sensors into actionable business insights using real time analysis. NI also offers a suite of software tools to collect, analyze, report, and act on Big Analog Data. | Liebherr creates innovative IoT solutions that are extendable and plug-and-play. Liebherr has developed the fleet management platform LiDAT for their construction machines. Due to customer demand, these platforms are often extended to include competitors’ products but with limited data coverage and functionality. For the household appliance industry, Liebherr has a novel refrigeration solution: a plug-and-play device that turns almost any of the company's fridges into a smart fridge.
What's especially brilliant about the SmartDevice is not so much its capabilities, but Liebherr's overall approach to smart home technology. Unlike smart home setups that force users to buy pricey hardware that can't be upgraded and may not even be necessary, SmartDevice gives consumers the option of choosing nearly any Liebherr fridge and adding connectivity only if and when they feel comfortable doing so. | Smart Connected Operations is a future looking vision that describes what the factory or production line of the future will look like. It will involve Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) enabled MOM applications integrated with IIoT enabled assets and IIoT enabled business systems. It is an elemental part of creating the Smart Connected Enterprise and is often where companies have breaks in the strands of the digital thread.
In moving towards this vision, both solution providers and manufacturing organizations are going to have to up the game when it comes to investing in IIoT. These investments will include the creation of new organizations that bring together IT, OT, and business leaders, new technologies that enable connectivity, cloud, big data analytics, and the development of new applications, along with the foresight to see that small pilot projects today could transform entire industries tomorrow. | CAXA's Intelligent Manufacturing Solution is centered around industrial "big data", using products such as CAD, PLM, MES and platform like industrial cloud to form a holistic system.
