Industry 4.0: Connect Product Lifecycle Across an Enterprise

Automated and streamlined processes, digital transformation, cloud computing, and robotics have become standard parts of the modern manufacturing industry. But before that, technologies have come a long way, from discovering steam engines in the first industrial revolution to the Internet and smart factories in the fourth one, Industry 4.0.

Industry 4.0 is characterized by new technologies connecting the physical, digital, and biological worlds and affecting all industries. These include but are not limited to the following:

• Cloud Computing
• Artificial Intelligence
• Big Data
• Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT)
