Keep up with the journey of deploying edge computing


As your organization moves towards planning, implementing, or even deploying advanced computing, do you know what barriers may be blocking your progress?

Is it a lack of advanced computer technology or education? Do you have the in-house skill set to deliver real value from your business? Do you have security or budget concerns?

These are just a few of the queries that may indicate whether you are late on the road to deploying advanced computing.

What is holding back the deployment of edge computing?

In a recent Stratus Edge Computing Trends Report, industry peers pointed out that the most common barriers to advanced computing deployment are “a lack of advanced computing education” and questions about “whether, when and how to use advanced computing. technologies. “Experience in control system design, process design, or automation is considered a critical skillset that teams need to take advantage of advanced computing deployments.

More and more companies are realizing the importance of advanced computing, but they can fall behind on their way without realizing it. Your company or your customers, if you are a systems integrator or OEM, may not have the speed, network performance, or in-house knowledge to capitalize on the edge. Most organizations face cost challenges as well as robust technology structures to ensure the continuous availability of their core business processes.

Industry analysts and many other industry verticals say the adoption of advanced computing is the most significant advancement in industrial computing since the advent of Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) 30 years ago. A boundary is “where the action takes place” in or near core business processes such as assembly lines, highly transactional structures, pumps and fuel lines, transportation applications, and many other types of processes.
