Practical Digital Twin solutions are often cast in the context of an evolving journey, initially starting with small scale building blocks interconnecting adjacent elements before full end-to-end pipeline integration is achieved.
It might be natural to assume that all Digital Twin journeys start when all the core components are in place, or that they begin with data ingestion and follow a standard flow, but in practice this may not be the case. Businesses will likely already have existing objects, processes, environments, and data in place, so they might choose to embark upon their Digital Twin journey where it makes practical sense within their existing data workflows.
