Powerful, critical data is currently trapped in machines at the edge, isolated from the network. Without being able to access this data, plants will not be able to effectively optimize these machines or processes to improve productivity and performance. In this new video, “How to Get Value from Trapped Data in Manufacturing,” Derek Thomas explains how advanced edge controller technology enables enterprises to access this isolated data and extract, analyze and present it to generate actionable information. This brings the power of big data down to the edge since the first step is dealing with the little data inside the machine and using it for process optimization. As organizations take on more and more of these little data projects, the knowledge base can be elevated to the plant level, moving further toward realizing the true benefits of big data and IIoT. Check out this video and learn how industrial edge control technology can help solve the big data challenge.
