Industrial Cloud - China'S Industrial Upgrading Begins

With the new technology and new mode promoting the rapid iteration of the industrial chain, industrial enterprises are facing major problems such as fierce competition, sharp increase in human cost and rising management cost. The demand for intelligent transformation of digital network is becoming increasingly urgent. Good equipment management, operation and maintenance management, and production data analysis tools become the key starting point for industrial enterprises to break through. The cloud deployment and on-demand payment mode of the industrial cloud platform just solve the problems of high development cost and complex deployment. Therefore, enterprises that realize the importance of cloud services have implemented the upgrading and transformation of cloud on the device and cloud on the data.

The industrial Internet is the industry and application ecology formed by the deep integration of the new generation of information technology and industrial system. It mainly includes three major sections: the perception layer (intelligent sensor, the new intelligent terminal), the connecting layer (communication technology, industrial Ethernet, fieldbus), application layer (cloud computing, big data, artificial intelligence, innovative application). The core is to stimulate productivity, optimize the allocation of resources, and ultimately reconstruct the industrial pattern through automation, information technology, networking and intelligent technology.

I visited industrial enterprises to understand that industrial enterprises mostly use the way of cooperation with industrial Internet service providers to achieve lightweight and effective internal upgrading. Take a traditional textile enterprise in Guangdong as an example, the traditional form has been used as an internal management tool before, and it is cumbersome and often wrong, and many equipment data and management data are missing, which can not form a real digital management. This year, the enterprise is determined to carry out the information upgrading. It adopts the IU (innovation&union) industrial cloud platform of the new industrial Internet service company, and uses hardware and software integration to solve the data acquisition, transmission, storage, multi terminal display and data analysis of the plant's equipment, production and management. Its production leader said that the technology of the service company is only a few minutes to complete the installation and configuration of the data acquisition equipment. All the data are clearly displayed on the mobile phone and the office screen. The rich and accurate charts and analysis tools make the internal management more clear, both the staff salary, equipment management and flexible production are realized through the platform.

Through the textile enterprise linked to Beijing Hong Tu Creative Technology Co., Ltd., we learned from the division that its IU industrial cloud platform was aiming at the problems of enterprise equipment management disorder, operation and maintenance non-standard, paper collaboration, and data not being able to see and so on. The device management, operation and maintenance management, work order management, data analysis and other functional sections were launched. Since 2018, users have been growing very fast. More and more industrial enterprises choose to integrate the internal data of enterprises with the industrial cloud platform to achieve information upgrading.

Through the investigation of industrial enterprises and service providers, the starting point for large-scale selection of cloud services by industrial enterprises is becoming more and more clear. Because of the continuous development of Internet of things and big data technology, industrial Internet can play a great role in upgrading and transformation of industrial enterprises. Equipment management, operation and maintenance management and production management data are reasonably stored, displayed and utilized, making flexible production, paperless office and predictive maintenance possible.

The low cost, high availability and quick deployment of cloud platform services, which are needed by industrial enterprises, are falling rapidly with the technological progress of Internet of things, big data and artificial intelligence. The industrial cloud platform has become the key weapon and necessary path for the traditional industrial enterprises to realize the upgrading of information technology. China's industrial upgrading has begun.
