Silos hinder the seamless flow of information and pose significant challenges for efficient management and optimization of systems, particularly at the edge.
By embracing few key approaches, organizations can effectively break down technology silos at the edge. This not only enhances operational efficiency and agility but also lays the groundwork for innovation and future growth in an increasingly interconnected world!
- Unified Platform facilitates effective communication and management across various devices, sensors, and Edge components by operating on a common platform.
- APIs for device/data access ensures seamless communication and integration between different devices and systems, making diagnostics and troubleshooting easier.
- Platform capable of interfacing with diverse, heterogeneous, and legacy devices ensures no device is left behind.
- Support for multiple protocols accommodates diverse communication standards present in the edge environments. Eliminating compatibility issues and streamlining operations allows for seamless integration with various devices and systems.
- Data-Oriented Approach helps consolidate all edge data (metadata and metrics included) into a centralized repository that provides a foundation for analytics. Actionable insights help make informed decisions to optimize performance and mitigate risks.
“By 2025, 75% of data is going to be processed at the Edge.” – Gartner.
