Manage industrial data professionally

Centralized or decentralized data storage? The Edge & Cloud Control Forum on May 17 in Munich will provide answers to this fundamental question for the industry.

A fundamental question has been running through automation technology for around three decades and opinions are currently divided on the decision: Which is better - to store and process data centrally in the cloud or decentrally at the edge in production?

For automation and mechanical engineers, the OT experts par excellence, the situation is further complicated by the fact that topics such as cloud, edge and artificial intelligence have their origins in IT. This means that two worlds collide: collaboration is often characterized by misunderstandings and "talking past each other" when trying to discuss and solve problems together.

The Edge & Cloud Control Forum of the specialist medium Computer&Automation addresses precisely this issue: in automation and user jargon, it highlights the current trends and developments in data handling for industrial applications - from the edge to the cloud. The event brings OT and IT specialists together and promotes dialog.
