From Data to Decisions: Unlocking Industrial AI with Siemens Industrial Edge ,

eng. Rostislav Rusev, eng. Nikola Petkov


Abstract

As manufacturing becomes increasingly data-driven, Industrial Edge is
transforming how factories collect, process, and utilize information at the
OT/IT convergence layer. By bringing computing power closer to machines and
production assets, Siemens Industrial Edge enables real-time analytics,
faster decision-making, and scalable deployment of AI applications directly
on the shop floor. The platform bridges operational technology and
information technology, creating a seamless flow of data from sensors and
equipment to enterprise systems and cloud services. This foundation
empowers manufacturers to improve productivity, increase transparency,
optimize operations, and accelerate digital transformation initiatives.
