The cloud enables companies to process huge amounts of data quickly and accurately from multiple sources across the entire supply chain. This data can be analysed to generate valuable business insights, facilitating informed decision-making. The cloud helps accelerate the adoption of emerging technologies to reduce environmental footprint and improve resource efficiency. The benefits of moving to the cloud (public, private or hybrid) are numerous. Besides helping achieve economies of scale, the cloud helps companies gain the flexibility to adjust the amount of computing resources and reduces the time and cost of developing new applications. The cloud is a huge enabler of innovation as it provides access to cuttingedge technologies and capabilities. It opens up a whole new world of opportunities and collaborative networks.” “Secure, real-time industrial data communications are essential in today’s environment.
