Building the API Layer for Modern Manufacturing

In this 55-minute live webcast, Torey Penrod-Cambra moderates a discussion between HighByte product leaders Aron Semle and Jeffrey Schroeder. Viewers will learn how the Intelligence Hub is bringing standardized, API access to industrial data, making it easier for any application, analytics tool, or AI agent to request contextualized data from the plant floor.

The webcast includes short demos of new features in HighByte Intelligence Hub version 4.4, including the new i3X Server, Pipeline AI Agent, Central Data capability, event subscriptions engine, and Databricks Zerobus connection. Registrants are encouraged to submit a question in the registration form to be addressed live during the event.

HighByte Office Hours are recommended for manufacturing IT professionals, data engineers, and system architects at industrial companies.

Agenda

• Demonstrate how the Intelligence Hub's Factory API capabilities are enhanced with the addition of the i3X Server, creating a unified API surface for apps, AI agents, and analytics that use industrial data.
• Build, edit, and summarize pipelines using natural language with the new in-app Pipeline AI Agent.
• Learn how to federate distributed namespaces across remote sites using Central Data to power enterprise pipelines from a single hub.
• Discuss how the updated backend engine for event subscriptions simplifies pipeline design and prevents missed data changes.
• See how the new Databricks Zerobus connection streams industrial data directly into Delta Lake without intermediate event streaming services.
