I heard from Hannover Messe that AVEVA was launching a hybrid/cloud MES solution. Why hybrid cloud MES? Today’s manufacturing is high speed/high volume, need to get closer to the edge, closer to the critical control, the machines, yet we need to move data from edge to cloud. I get why edge, but why cloud?
