Connecting the shop floor: a pragmatic IoT roadmap

Industrial IoT projects stall when they try to boil the ocean. The pragmatic path starts with the signals that change a decision: temperature, differential pressure, equipment state.
Edge gateways bridge legacy PLCs to modern APIs without ripping out capital equipment. From there, environmental monitoring and OEE follow naturally. The goal is not data for its own sake — it is a single digital thread that quality, engineering and operations can trust.
