Industrial Edge Computing: Low Latency Where Data Happens

Industrial edge computing moves processing capacity from the centralised cloud to the plant floor, the machine, or the robotic cell. Local latency (10-50 ms) is critical for process control, machine vision, and safety systems: it is a physical limit that bandwidth alone cannot solve. OPC UA, K3s, and private 5G now form a proven production-ready stack.

Private 5G Networks in Factories: When It Makes Sense

Private 5G networks deliver high capacity, low latency, and thousands of connected devices for factories that do not want to depend on a carrier or settle for Wi-Fi. They make sense in large campuses with mobility or high IoT density; for medium plants with fewer than 50 devices, Wi-Fi 6/7 remains more cost-effective.
