Industrial organizations have begun to merge (or “converge”) existing Operations Technology (OT) systems on the shop floor with interconnected Industry 4.0 technologies like Industrial IoT (IIoT), cloud, and advanced analytics from their corporate IT side of the house.
Yet many industrial organizations still struggle to realize Industry 4.0’s rich promise of innovation and better real-time decisions. Why is that? And, more importantly, what can technology leaders do about it?
Though the struggle can have several root causes, this Horizon Report (the third in our Cloud Ascension Edge series), looks at the need for IT leaders to accelerate IT/OT convergence beyond just the use of new technologies deployed at the industrial edge. We offer guidance to, instead, accelerate true IT/OT convergence — including the foundational merging of people, process, and culture.
