While there are still many problems with the Internet of Things (IoT) and the Industrial IoT (IIoT), it has not stopped many of the companies that are developing IIoT applications and infrastructure from developing new products and even alliances. One of the most notable alliances in recent weeks has been the recently announced partnership between Google and Siemens, who are to pooling resources to better facilitate better IIoT applications in the enterprise.
This follows the announcement earlier this month that TX-based Siemens plans to integrate Google Cloudâs data cloud and artificial intelligence/machine learning (AI/ML) technologies with Siemens factory automation solutions. The partnership is a logical one and the two together should enable organizations to develop a more powerful and effective IIoT presence.
