The report, Cloud Computing in Industrial IoT: Cloud-based IIoT Software, Platforms, and Edge Computing Infrastructure 2018 – 2023, provides analysis of cloud computing and IIoT technologies and solutions.

It includes a comprehensive assessment of cloud infrastructure and deployment types including detailed analysis of edge computing.  This includes a concentrated focus on Mobile Edge Computing (MEC)

Cloud Computing in IIoT Report Overview

Enterprise and industrial focused businesses have many telecom and IT related decisions to make about ICT infrastructure and services.  Two of the most important areas are cloud computing and Internet of Things (IoT).

Mobile Edge Computing (MEC) in particular is anticipated to become a major complement to enterprise computing infrastructure.  While both computing and IIoT require considerable planning and often considerable investment, the payoff is quite substantial for companies that make the right decisions about integrating new technologies with existing systems and processes.

The initial return on investment continues to be largely cost reduction, but new and enhanced products and services, as well as improved customer intimacy are clearly the longer term benefits.

Cloud in IIoT Industry Impact

This latest Mind Commerce research into the convergence of IoT and Cloud infrastructure has unveiled significant opportunities for enterprise to leverage emerging solutions involving edge computing. In fact, we see industrial IoT (IIoT) solutions involving streaming data and real-time analytics as a key value-added function for many industry verticals including healthcare, manufacturing, and transportation.

Manufacturing, industrial automation, and robotics are key sectors that will benefit substantially from MEC.  For example, prior to edge computing implementation, teleoperation and tele-robotics are largely relegated to fixed communications connections.  MEC will enable teleoperation anywhere there is advanced LTE or 5G coverage, enabling many new consumer and industrial automation scenarios involving robotics.
