Maintaining the pace of 24/7 food production requires a delicate balance of technology. According to a report from Food Industry Executive, relying solely on pure cloud Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) can introduce latency issues that put deterministic production lines at risk.
Hayden Foot of Rockwell Automation argues that a hybrid edge-to-cloud approach is more effective. This method avoids the pitfalls of pure on-premises systems while ensuring that high-speed operations are not interrupted by cloud connectivity delays.
