This Dell Validated Design, or DVD, makes use of the Dell EMC Edge Gateway 5200 and 3200, as well as the PowerEdge XR4000 server, which acts as the primary Edge Device gateway, gathering data from sensors and equipment and passing it to the Telit deviceWISE Edge software. With very little latency and better decision making, this enables real-time data collection and processing at the edge. The gateway can also be set up on-site and linked to a company's existing network.
Dell PowerEdge servers and VxRail can be installed close to the production floor, where the data is generated. This enables fast and efficient data processing, which accelerates time to insight and increases operating efficiency. Additionally, the solution makes use of the Dell Streaming Data Platform (SDP) to offer seamless software integration between all of the ISVs, as well as persistent store local to the operation.
Each ISV offers a different range of benefits to the solution. Devices and assets can be managed and monitored effectively with deviceWISE Edge and Workbench tools from Telit Cinterion. With threat detection, vulnerability and risk management, and secure remote management of assets, Claroty's Continuous Threat Detection (CTD), Secure Remote Access (SRA), and xDome offer complete security coverage, safeguarding OT and IT networks. Manufacturers can optimize resource use, increase efficiency, improve quality, and improve safety using XMPro's digital twin technology. A digital twin creates virtual representations of real-world entities and processes, which can be used to run simulations to create possible improvements and generate important metrics before applying them to the physical assets. The real-time defect analysis and detection capabilities of Cognex's machine vision and AI/ML technology lead to improved quality control and decreased waste.
The solution offers both fully integrated and stand-alone options, giving customers the freedom to select the ISVs that best suit their individual requirements. The majority of customers are unlikely to buy the entire integrated solution, but they might be interested in one or two ISVs because of their particular advantages.
