Infographic | Storage for the Industrial IoT

With the rise of Industry 4.0 Industrial IoT (IIoT) applications, storage is being approached in a new light. In the past, storage may have been acquired solely based on capacity needs or price, but today’s autonomous applications and use cases require other considerations. As developers think about the unique environments of industrial applications, they need to include storage early in the process so it can be optimized for the IIoT ecosystem. This is an important change in thinking.

The infographic below shares some of the considerations you should take when thinking of storage for IIoT use cases, and why solution architects should have storage as a central focus when designing industrial applications with proactive planning. Whether it’s a robotic arm in a factory or a drone monitoring agricultural fields, these machines operate under very different conditions, and will require the right storage for optimally handling the deluge of data they will generate, process, and consume.

There are many key trends changing the industrial data landscape. And, as more industrial applications are trained to apply AI and ML algorithms to get real-time actionable insights, the need for versatile and durable storage solutions will continue to increase.

Not all storage devices are created equal. To understand the variety of storage solutions and better plan your IIoT storage strategy, join me or stream my webinar Indispensable – Understanding Storage for the Industrial Internet of Things.
