For years, industrial businesses have prioritized IT/OT convergence by bringing IT applications to the factory floor. But we’re now seeing a new trend of companies migrating operational technology (OT) software and tools to cloud platforms.
Learning how to use technology to enhance your work is just as critical. As IT/OT convergence rapidly transforms industries, professionals who do not embrace this mindset will struggle to keep up.
Mobile solutions are everywhere, but there are still areas where their use is restricted. These include the complex operating environments of process industries. We have to pay more attention to its security, durability, and design considerations to ensure mobile solutions become an asset rather than a liability.
Cloud technology is gaining momentum across industries, yet many in the process sector hesitate. These reservations stem from decades of established practices, stringent regulations, and the complexities of IT/OT convergence.
