The smart factory revolution is happening now

as artificial intelligence, machine learning, robotics, and the Internet of Things are re-shaping the way products are manufactured and delivered to customers. For manufacturers, the smart factory is a major leap to a fully connected system that combines network data from a wide array of users, applications, and devices that drive production, maintenance, logistics and inventory tracking, and operations. This significantly improves productivity, efficiency, and the ability to rapidly adjust to competitive factors such as facilities, supply chains, and global demand.

Intelligent traffic management is one of the most important features and sources of value for the smart factory. Prioritization of network traffic, devices, sensors, and applications, implementation of traffic policies based on asset and user location, manufacturing department, supplier and customer, traffic anomaly detection and troubleshooting, combined with machine learning and automation are critical to unleashing the power of the smart factory.
