The right kind of data to use for industrial IoT (IIoT) depends on your specific use case and your individual requirements, however there are some common types of data that are commonly used in IIoT:
- Machine data: This includes data from sensors and devices that are used to monitor and control various aspects of industrial operations, such as temperature, pressure, vibration, flow, and more.
- Process data: This includes data that is generated by industrial processes, such as production data, quality data, and other types of process-related data.
- Maintenance data: This includes data related to the maintenance of industrial equipment, such as sensor data on wear and tear, maintenance schedules, and other types of maintenance-related data.
- Environmental data: This includes data related to the environment in which industrial operations take place, such as temperature, humidity, and other types of environmental data.
- Business data: This includes data related to business operations, such as financial data, sales data, and other types of business-related data.
- Sensor data: This includes data from different types of sensors such as temperature, pressure, vibration, moisture, and more.
Advanced industrial IoT platforms, (such as Rayven’s integrated data, AI + IoT platform, Dynamix), are capable of handling data from multiple sources in real-time; key to this is their interoperability and integrations, as well as the ability to easily configure and display in simple, always accessible, dashboards and reports.
The right kind of data to use in IIoT will depend on the specific use case and requirements of the organization. For example, if an organization is looking to improve production efficiency, then machine data and process data would be the most relevant. If an organization is looking to improve maintenance operations, then maintenance data coupled with real-time asset performance data would be the most relevant.
It is therefore important to consider the data that is most relevant to the specific use case and requirements of the organization, and ensure that the data is accurate, complete and relevant to the specific use case. Rayven provides prebuilt IoT solutions that comes largely preconfigured (leaving room for you to customize and tailor the parts that matter), meaning that you have a blueprint for the data that you need to collect and much of the hardwork in terms of workflows and processing is already set-up for you, including machine learning algorithms.
In summary, the right kind of data to use in industrial IoT depends on the specific use case and requirements of the organization. Common types of data used in IIoT include machine data, process data, maintenance data, environmental data, business data, and sensor data. It's important to consider the data that is most relevant to the specific use case and requirements of the organization and ensure that the data is accurate, complete and relevant to the specific use case.
