Modern manufacturing plants generate vast amounts of data that often remain trapped within machines, limiting the ability to optimize processes and respond quickly to problems. Securely unlocking this information is key to gaining real-time production insights and effective control across the entire plant. In this webinar, we'll take a closer look at the Siemens Industrial Edge platform, which provides an ideal bridge between IT and OT, helping address data silos. We'll demonstrate exactly what this solution is and how easy it is to implement in production. We'll walk through a practical process for establishing communication with controllers and aggregating data, building a solid foundation for further analytics.

During the webinar:

• Understand the business value of integration: You'll learn how unlocking data from the production layer allows for real-time process control and better business decision-making.
• Understand system architecture: You'll learn what the Industrial Edge platform is and how it ensures secure connectivity between IT and OT networks.
• Learn how to acquire data (S7 Protocol): You'll see how to easily configure data acquisition from popular Siemens controllers (S7-300, S7-1500).
• Master communication via OPC UA: We'll demonstrate a universal data acquisition path using this popular automation standard.
• Learn what's next for your data: We'll discuss how to aggregate collected variables from various sources and how they can be used in the future in higher-level systems.
