Merged IT and OT drive Industry40: Ideal is to put technology in place that can optimise operations, while improving worker safety and productivity, says Samar Abou Ltaif, IoT sales specialist: MEA at Cisco . Kathy Gibson reports ~ CiscoAfrica

Kathy Gibson reports – Smart factories based on Internet of Things are the result of merged information technology and operational technology to create manufacturing Industry 4.0.

“When we talk about IoT, it is about innovating beyond the edge,” she says. “In manufacturing, it is about realtime tracking of assets so we can do accurate forecasts. It is about allowing digital twins so engineers and designer can simulate operations and test products before going live. And it is about environmental monitoring so we reduce emissions while saving costs.

Complexity at scale can be difficult to manage when there are multi-vendor networks, multiple touch points and complex interactions. When it comes to OT, the company’s products are industrial-grade and built to withstand harsh environments.
