Industry 4.0

Today, Industry 4.0 is a current topic because it enables even greater product customization and thus industrial mass individual production. This leads to increased production efficiency, making the realization of an individual customer's request in real-time a reality.

Under the keyword Industry 4.0, many system providers are currently focusing on the integration of production and supply chains, with intelligent factories in industrial manufacturing being the main aspect of Industry 4.0. The focus here is on the interaction of various components, such as software, sensor, processor, and communication technology. Industry 4.0 encompasses not only manufacturing but also supply or storage systems that communicate in real-time.

The Concept Behind Industry 4.0 Offers Enormous Potential for Companies.

However, the implementation relies on a comprehensive standard regarding software, interfaces, and related processes.

To achieve this, open-source technologies are the preferred choice. Open source has been the foundation in the security sector for years, with Linux often serving as the basis for such solutions. The widespread use of Android operating systems in the mobile sector also highlights the importance of open-source technologies. Even large companies like Google are involved in numerous open-source projects. Both large corporations and government institutions utilize open-source technologies to establish a trustworthy IT infrastructure. This presents a significant opportunity for collaboration on common solutions to drive Industry 4.0 and implement overarching standards, rather than hindering progress with individual isolated solutions.
