This is a question we often hear in the manufacturing community. As data sources multiply—from every machine on the shop floor to IoT sensors and building automation systems—it's essential to reconsider how we integrate and manage this information.
Are traditional, monolithic MES solutions still the best fit? Or is a composable architecture with the UNS at its core the way forward, allowing for specialized applications to address specific business challenges? Watch the full video below to find out:
