Today's world is fast-moving and digitally networked. The streams of data flowing through our modern infrastructures are almost inexhaustible. From industrial plants to networked vehicles and smart cities - huge amounts of data are in circulation everywhere. In my blog post, I show how this data can be processed efficiently and in real time and what edge computing has to do with it.

In the world of Industry 4.0, efficient and reliable data is the be-all and end-all. But what do you do when standard solutions are not enough? Then you need a customised solution. In my blog post, you can find out how a new OPC UA client with DuckDB integration was created and what impressive benefits it offers in production.

The efficiency of order fulfilment is a key success factor in the modern business world, especially in the manufacturing industry. Automating these processes end-to-end can be a huge challenge. In this blog post, I introduce the end-to-end automation of order processing using the example of an orchestra and present a successful solution approach.

In the manufacturing industry, there is often talk of digital transformation. This is intended to pave the way for Industry 4.0. The opportunities and potential benefits of digitalisation are well known. The question is: why is it still only making slow progress? I get to the bottom of this question in my blog post.

Every day, employees struggle with manual reporting processes that cause high personnel costs, limited opportunities for process optimisation and quality deficiencies. Despite the crucial importance of KPIs for management, manual reporting processes are widespread in production. In this blog post, I explain why companies in the IIoT sector are starting with production reporting.

In recent years, the Internet of Things (IoT) has been on everyone's lips, promising to revolutionise the way we work and live in all industries. IoT devices, sensors and networks have been hailed as "the next big thing". But as with any technology trend that is heavily hyped, the question arises: is the Internet of Things dead? I answer this question in my blog post.

If you want to develop viable, successful solutions over the long term and also be able to evaluate and channel the potential of the Internet of Things, IoT needs to be strategically anchored at your organisation. This is where the IoT factory comes in handy. I will explain what that is in my blog post.

An anomaly is a data point or pattern in a time series that differs from the data you would typically expect to receive. Anomaly detection deals with the task of identifying these irregularities. In this blog post, we will be presenting approaches used to analyse time series data and detect anomalies. Along with that, you will also find out how to successfully integrate the algorithms into a smart product platform.

Manufacturing companies are undergoing a transformation: the digitalisation of production promises efficiency and innovation, but also harbours risks. The networking of machines, IT systems and cloud services opens up unimagined potential, but what about IT security?
