🎥 Nowadays, we live in the middle of phase 4 of industrial automation, using data to create information. This evolved phase of automation is called Industry 4.0, and its vital technology is the Industrial Internet of Things or IIoT.
By watching this video, you’ll get the answer to these questions:
- What is IIoT?
- Where is IIoT used?
- How does IIoT work?
- What are IIoT benefits?
- What are IIoT protocols?
- What is IIoT architecture?
- What are IIoT challenges?
- What are IIoT components?

💬 Video Summary:
IIoT Definition
- IIoT is an industrial framework in which physical devices and machines are connected via a network and interact with industrial applications through the cloud
IIoT Uses
- Where you want to have a unified data space to digitize information, IIoT is needed
- Where you want your team members to be up-to-date and aware of current business and manufacturing procedures, IIoT is needed
- Where you want to increase productivity and profits and enhance client pleasure and experience, IIoT is needed
IIoT Architecture
- The edge layer consists of physical components such as sensors and actuators
- The network layer includes IoT gateways, edge routers, or IIoT PLCs that navigate data within the factory
- The cloud layer is the processing engine and data handler, so we call it the core of the IIoT system
- Application layer includes computer-driven industrial applications
IIoT Working Principle
- Sensors act as measurement devices to sense process parameters. Data is then broadcast across a network in the factory easily to reach edge controllers
- When edge controllers get data, they serve as the bridge connecting the local network to the cloud. The edge controllers use OPC UA or MQTT protocols to pass data to the cloud
- After the data has been stored in the cloud, you will have the power to monitor and control operations, analyze statistics on industry performance, anticipate upcoming behavior, and use advanced capabilities such as machine learning and artificial intelligence
IIoT Benefits
- If any machinery operation faces alarm conditions, the alarm data is sent to the cloud. Then, the information is passed to monitoring systems to deliver immediate alerts to relevant personnel
- Another significant benefit of using the IIoT system is predictive maintenance. In this method, the IIoT monitors attribute to keep track of your equipment's health and set warning and alarm thresholds
- If you want to optimize production, you can count on two advanced technologies in the IIoT system: Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence
IIoT Challenges
- Data integration is one of the main challenges to implementing an IIoT system
- Another challenge is having insufficient knowledge of IIoT integration
- Another challenge is to have a reliable method for testing devices to determine if they are running the most recent firmware version and, if not, for installing new firmware
- Any outage or breakdown in the IIoT system can cause potentially fatal scenarios or significant financial losses
- The top potential risk of implementing the IIoT system is the security issue
