The term industry 4.0 is the new buzzword. Conferences, articles, and reports dedicated to the subject seem to indicate it. What is industry 4.0? And most importantly, what is behind this concept of IIOT<\/strong>?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Fourth Industrial Revolution, also recognized as Industry 4.0, is altering the manner companies function and thus the contexts they are compelled to compete in. Industry 4.0 means the pledge of a fresh revolution combining sophisticated manufacturing methods and activities with smart systems that will be incorporated into organizations, individuals, and resources.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This revolution is marked by the emergence of new technologies such as robotics, analytics, artificial intelligence<\/strong>, cognitive technologies, nanotechnology, and the Internet of Things app development <\/a><\/strong>among others. Organizations need to define the techniques that better fulfill their investment requirements. If companies do not understand the changes and opportunities that Industry 4.0 brings, they run the risk of losing market share.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The digital integration of information from different sources and locations allows a business<\/a> to be carried out in a continuous cycle. Throughout this cycle, real-time access to information is driven by the continuous and cyclical flow of information and actions between the physical and digital worlds<\/a>. This flow takes place through a series of iterative steps known as PDP – for its physical-to-digital-to-physical acronym:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
