Ready-to-use industrial edge platform for data processing on the production level
Industrial Edge V1.0 comprising the Edge Management system, edge apps, and edge devices with container-based runtime
Edge Management system provides central management for edge devices and apps over the entire lifecycle
Apps that increase productivity can be integrated into industrial environments quickly, with little effort and minimal risk
Siemens is
expanding its offer for industrial IoT solutions, adding to its Industrial Edge
portfolio a central and company-wide scalable infrastructure for managing
connected edge devices and apps. With the new Industrial Edge Management
system, users can remotely monitor the status of every connected device and
remotely install edge apps and software functions on distributed edge devices.
In combination with existing hardware and software products, this Industrial
Edge V1.0 open platform provides users with a ready-to-use and seamless
solution for data processing on the production level with integrated device and
app lifecycle management.

In combination with existing hardware and software products, this Industrial
Edge V1.0 open platform provides users with a ready-to-use and seamless
solution for data processing on the production level with integrated device and
app lifecycle management.
With the new
Industrial Edge Management system, distributed edge devices and their states
can be monitored centrally, diagnosed, and managed by IT administrators and
manufacturing engineers. This means that new software apps can be rolled out
company-wide and securely on all connected Industrial Edge devices. Central
software management minimizes or even completely eliminates the effort involved
in maintenance and updates for distributed software instances. Existing,
already containerized software (Docker) can be used applied to Industrial Edge.
In addition, users can always develop their own edge apps to meet
company-specific requirements. Functional and security-related updates are
provided by Siemens via the Edge Management system, which can then be scheduled
for roll-out to connected edge devices to meet the security requirements of an
industrial IoT solution. With this ready-to-use management platform, IT
administrators can roll out edge apps highly automated and reliably in
manufacturing and manage them over the entire lifecycle. In addition, the
freedom from retroactive effects between automation and edge systems helps them
to ensure high system availability of the automation solution. The Edge
Management system can be operated in Version 1.0 within the company
infrastructure, for example in manufacturing, and is specifically tailored to
the requirements of users who particularly value data security. In future, it
will also be possible to operate the Management system in cloud
infrastructures.
With the Siemens
Industrial Edge V1.0 offer, Siemens is simplifying the collection and analysis
of machine data and bringing IT standards such as container-based apps
(Docker), high-level language-based data analysis and processing, and central
software and device management directly to manufacturing – integrated in
automation systems.
