Extending Enterprise to the Edge

There is a lot of hype around the Internet of Things (IoT), especially with so many solution providers claiming to have end-to-end solutions. But when end users take a closer look at these solutions, there are often missing pieces. Shortcomings are common in the realms of device connectivity, manageability, scalability, and security issues, as well as analytics and integration with business applications especially for industrial companies that employ a variety of networks and device types in their facilities. This comes as no surprise to end users surveyed by Frost & Sullivan, who reported that legacy system integration and lack of standardization are two of the top four apprehensions for companies seeking to digitize their operational facilities per Industry 4.0.1 As respective leaders in information technology (IT) and operational technology (OT), Oracle and Wind River have a vested stake in bridging the IT/OT divide. The two companies have collaborated to deliver an end-to-end platform that provides a secure communications path from edge to cloud. The solution enables industrial companies to spend less time managing device connectivity, manageability, and security, and more time extracting valuable insights from their data.
