Time to read: 8 minutes ![]() As industrial organizations across the globe work toward digital transformation, many find the lack of readily accessible and usable data to be major barriers to success. Manufacturers want to use operational data to drive automated decisions from machinery to the Cloud and put better information in the hands of business leaders. But depending on their data maturity, manufacturers often find that:
The result of these challenges is the inability to scale. Even projects that manage to get rolled out are difficult and expensive to maintain, and therefore digital transformation goals are not met. Time to read: 9 minutes ![]() From our very first release in early 2020, HighByte Intelligence Hub has developed alongside the needs of Industry 4.0 pioneers. We have focused our efforts on addressing the most pressing challenges faced by industrial companies as they integrate systems and modernize their architectures. Today, industrial information networks encompass more sensors, devices, and systems than ever before, indicating an exciting level of connectivity being adopted globally. To facilitate and accelerate this adoption, we are excited to announce Intelligence Hub version 3.1. Intelligence Hub version 3.1 includes powerful data accessibility, governance, and scaling capabilities from a broad swath of new features, each of which extends the reach of the Intelligence Hub to even more producers and consumers of industrial data.

Supply chain partners, regulators, customers, and investors are demanding more environmental accountability from manufacturers—and with good cause. According to the International Energy Agency, the manufacturing and power sectors account for 63% of energy-related CO2 emissions worldwide. Progress depends largely upon their success. Thankfully, manufacturing has come a long way since the third industrial revolution that saw a rise in automation and productivity without much consideration for environmental impact. The fourth industrial revolution, or Industry 4.0, has given manufacturers more insight into their operational efficiencies. Network-connected assets provide a real-time lens into performance metrics that go hand-in-hand with more sustainable production. Still, this level of connectedness presents a new challenge: How to manage data more efficiently. Time to read: 7 minutes ![]() For the past several months, 55 beta testers in 13 countries have been kicking the tires on HighByte Intelligence Hub version 3.0 and generously providing their feedback. Today, I’m excited to announce this major release is now available. Version 3.0 is a step change for the Intelligence Hub and for the Industrial DataOps market. It raises the bar for what a DataOps solution can be at Enterprise scale. It introduces a powerful new Pipelines builder to curate complex data pipelines. It makes the often-vague concept of the Unified Namespace (UNS) tangible and achievable with an embedded MQTT broker—reducing additional software, cost, and administration overhead for our customers. I sat down with HighByte Chief Product Officer John Harrington to talk about some of these advancements available in Version 3.0, including Pipelines. His thoughts are below. I also provide insights from our partner Goodtech, a deep dive on the embedded broker, a review of new project management capabilities, and more. |
