Moving securely ahead into the future of cloud computing: data transfer using the edge gateway from Turck
Industry 4.0 is entirely dominated by the cloud, however the massive potential offered by these types of technology is still far from being exhausted.
The key when it comes to utilizing the almost unlimited opportunities available lies in rapid and secure data transfer, which is increasingly taking place across 5G networks. The Edge Gateways from Turck’s TCG20 range are paving the way to a future that will make effective use of the cloud.
Some plant manufacturers are already utilizing the opportunities offered by cloud-based technologies, while others are still being hesitant. Nevertheless, it is undisputed that no industrial company will be able to shut itself off from the trend towards cloud-based technologies or from the immense opportunities that they bring. The benefits, such as the fact that cloud-based technologies are device and location-independent and can be used as a means of carrying out evaluations and automation, are all too obvious. The increasing intelligence of automation components and their interaction with cloud-based software will also act as an additional boost to development. The cloud revolution has only just begun. What is more, the topic of data transfer is also gaining ground.
