GPU workloads and AI agents demand more than automated deployment can provide, so organizations need a consistent operating model for governance, visibility, and lifecycle management across all environments.

The organizations that evolve to Industry 5.0 will be those that connect intelligence, infrastructure, and people into a highly efficient operating model.

A guided workflow uses project information and Unitronics PLC programming rules to help engineers generate Structured Text with their choice of AI model.

How to stop guessing and choose a historian based on the job that actually needs doing.

Although the final versions of the EN 62443 standards have not been released, manufacturers can use existing standards to start preparing to comply with them.

Growing connectivity, new regulations, and long-term operational requirements are pushing cybersecurity decisions into the earliest stages of industrial project design.

Intelligent automation that combines AI-driven decision-making with traditional rules-based processes is reshaping how life sciences organizations approach high-volume, repetitive work.

Physical AI is transforming industrial automation, from autonomous robots to machine vision. Discover why reliable edge AI hardware, real-time processing, multi-sensor connectivity, and thermal stability are essential for real-world deployment.

Lights out machining gets the headlines. But today, we’re exploring how automation’s biggest impact often happens with the lights on. Explore how the right solution can increase capacity, reduce scrap, and help skilled machinists focus on higher-value work.

Data poisoning reduces AI accuracy by influencing what an industrial system learns and how it responds to inputs.

By digitizing instrumentation signals at or near the process and transmitting multiple measurements over a single communications link, Remote I/O helps facilities improve installation efficiency, simplify maintenance, and accommodate future expansion without extensive modifications to existing control infrastructure.

In the latest edition of the Ask the Automation Pros column, the pros discuss how to set up a data historian to transform data into information that can be used for process monitoring, diagnosis, prediction, optimization and continuous improvement.

For years, cybersecurity strategies in manufacturing focused primarily on protecting corporate IT systems while keeping production environments largely isolated from external networks. That model is being challenged as manufacturers create more connections between operational technology (OT) and enterprise systems to support business-wide initiatives.

A controller connected to the Internet is exposed by design. The practical response is architectural: close the comm path and move process data through a controlled connection

How to develop an OT cybersecurity roadmap to transition to PQC algorithms designed to resist quantum-computer-enabled decryption.

Magnetic flow meters have proven to excel in challenging applications. This Q&A with Cheng Vue, Global Product Manager at Emerson, covers how the company is innovating with magnetic flow meters that are more intelligent, trustworthy, and easier to use.

The article sets three conditions that qualify a task, names six places to start, and argues that the real question is not which model you subscribe to but whether your software platform can give one structured access to its own engineering model.

In addition to a successful backup, nine conditions determine whether OT recovery takes hours, days or weeks.

This article explores how a resilient software foundation and a microkernel architecture can isolate critical workloads, contain faults, and support lifecycle cybersecurity. It highlights how foundational platforms such as QNX can enable secure and safe software-defined industrial modernization approaches that are essential in building and managing resilient systems throughout the systems lifecycle.

Regular, versioned backups of SCADA projects should be managed diligently. Without them, you may or may not be able to recover your data when the system fails. We got lucky.
