Systems communicating with each other are already not uncommon. As long as the systems are proprietary, this does not pose a challenge. However, in reality, systems from different manufactures are used. On the other hand, many solutions are far from connectivity. In the future, more and more devices will exchange data in real-time with protected cloud systems.
The challenge here is to build a secure and stable data pipeline as well as an orchestration that processes data in the device and the cloud. SECO offers extensive possibilities for building data pipelines and AI-based edge solutions.
