Dr Hema Wadhwa of Aurecon on building digital asset intelligence for the energy transition — why one gas turbine vs a hundred wind turbines breaks the old operations model, the control-room trust gap, and why there's no AI magic without the data groundwork.
Apache PLC4X creator Christofer Dutz explains why native PLC communication outperforms OPC-UA — 2,600 data points in 200ms vs 200 points in 2 seconds — plus IoTDB, open source in OT, and Rust-based PLC drivers.
In the finale of the 3-part FlowFuse mini-series, Kristopher Sandoval of FlowFuse joins Phil Seboa and Ed Fuentes on scaling industrial applications across sites — pipelines, granular RBAC, data sovereignty, and the governance that keeps AI-generated apps from becoming technical debt.
Kristopher Sandoval of FlowFuse returns to get practical with Phil Seboa and Ed Fuentes — moving from the application gap to real operational use cases: OEE dashboards, shift handover workflows, quality validation, and asset monitoring on the shop floor.
Kristopher Sandoval of FlowFuse joins Phil Seboa and Ed Fuentes to unpack the application gap in industrial operations — and how the Node-RED to FlowFuse Expert stack compresses weeks of development work into hours.
Francisco Almada Lobo, CEO of Critical Manufacturing, explains why Audi's 100+ AI initiatives never scaled to production — and how enriching IoT data with MES context changes everything.
