Unlike the business or private cloud, the industrial cloud is highly specialized to map industrial applications: It is about networking controllers and digitalizing processes, machines, systems and buildings (assets). Above all, flexible solutions are required because the asset data must often be communicated into a different, predetermined infrastructure.

When real-time data is involved, data processing has become increasingly important. More and more computing power is needed, placing corresponding demands on databases, as well as analysis and optimization algorithms, directly in the field.

Optimizing machines and systems requires a deep understanding of processes, accurate quantification and seamless integration of results. WAGO Analytics streamlines this process from data acquisition to analysis.

The WAGO IoT partner network combines different capabilities into one ecosystem and jointly creates end-to-end customer solutions. Our WAGO IoT Partners complement our WAGO Cloud, cloud connectivity, IoT gateways and controllers. This compatibility enables us to always provide a solution that meets your project's requirements.

Networking with the Industrial IoT (IIot) is the prerequisite for many data-based applications, such as modern product lifecycle management (PLM). The PLM Innovation department has developed a solution for this. It offers additional values that go beyond the binding of a production machine.

Thermal cameras are often used in early hazard detection and are also helpful in occupational medicine. Thus, the cameras can detect a noticeable deviation in a person's body temperature – an example being a slight fever at Covid-19. Companies use this technology to control turnstiles that automatically trigger an alarm upon detecting a sick person.
