Disruption is facing manufacturing industries with increasing market competition and smaller lot sizes due to the consumers' demands for customized or personalized products. The Smart Industry concept is addressing disruptions and requires integration across operational technology functions and between operational and information technologies. The integration depends on using IoT technology, data orchestration, and analytics. Cloud computing is key in letting manufacturers to transform their factories toward Industry 4.0. Most of the implementation will be done at the device and require new infrastructure cloud capabilities.
CloudBackend is the solution of complex data management — a service that solves data availability, synchronization, data harvesting, security, and enables cloud computing in smart factories. The Singularity Database offers developers low latency cloud capacity and faster cloud applications and systems without the need of writing backend or networking code.
CloudBackend provides distributed clouds that constantly synchronize and keep its state while being nimble to fit inside inside IoT devices, in factory servers, and all the way up to public clouds. It is a very powerful end-to-end offering to developers that build industrial IoT solutions. The central features and benefits are:
