The new phase in the industrial revolution, also known as the connected manufacturing is a combination of cyber-physical systems, the Internet of Things and the Internet of Systems that focuses heavily on interconnectivity, automation, machine learning, and real-time data.
Internet of Things (IoT) is the next wave of technology to facilitate the Machine-to-Machine process automation. IoT implementation involves deploying sensors, data aggregator, wireless communication, intelligent processors and hardware. The growing need of IoT enabled devices, machinery and mobility will lead the world to truly connected.
Edge computing is the practice of processing data near the edge of the network, where the data is being generated, instead of in a centralized data-processing warehouse.
