Trends in Factory Automation: The Internet of Things

March 1, 2016

To compete over the long term in markets where companies start implementing IoT factory automation means developing an IoT strategy. For new plants, a fully integrated hardware concept with intelligent sensors, powerful embedded controllers and panel PCs linked on IP-enabled networks is a prerequisite. The future automation trends will include wireless sensors, connect to the IoT gateway device, transferring data through the cloud and provide engineers and data analysts with valuable information that can be translated into actionable and profitable plans. For hardware, rugged, modularized products with wide operating temperature range and wireless connectivity features will become more in demand because they can be installed closer to the sensors and the machinery.

Versa SD-WAN Solution Use Case for Satellite ISPs

whitePaper | July 19, 2022

Satellite networks offer their customers several advantages over other types of connectivity. They are easily deployed, reliable, and allow a wide degree of mobility, making them a perfect fit for Disaster Recovery Plans (DRP). They are an essential asset in places where other connectivity methods are not available, such as oil rigs, vessels, or even planes. However, they have several characteristics that make them harder to manage when compared to other kinds of networks. This document will discuss those challenges and explore how the Versa Operating System (VOS™) can help you extract better performance out of your Satellite links.

Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) and its Adoption

whitePaper | September 22, 2022

The complexity and cost of ensuring network security and remote access for employees and key business partners can overwhelm smaller businesses. Higher cloud adoption, a distributed workforce, mobile employees, the proliferation of Internet of Things (IoT) devices, and increasingly sophisticated cyberattacks make traditional methods of ensuring secure communications across your organization overly complex and expensive. Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) reduces the surface area for attack by following zero trust tenets to provide access to applications. ZTNA from OpenVPN Cloud creates a private, secure overlay network for businesses, which connects all of their applications, private networks, workforce, and IoT devices together without needing to own and manage a multitude of complex and hard-to-scale security and data networking gear.
