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.

When it comes to optimizing your own machines or systems, the challenge is usually improving and quantifying process knowledge and transferring results back into the process. WAGO Analytics, a Minden-based company, supports users on the path from data acquisition to analysis and provides intuitive visualization of the dependencies within systems.
