ARC Advisory Group’s recent research on Industrial IoT edge compute software platforms reflects the growing acceptance of edge computing, edge and cloud-native architectures, and software-defined frameworks as promising enablers of digital transformation across industries and applications. IT-oriented edge platform suppliers are enhancing their offerings with enterprise-level sophistication to meet the growing demands of a diverse customer base. Traditional automation suppliers are capitalizing on their deep domain expertise to expand their OT portfolios, incorporating edge computing and control systems into platforms that enhance their existing solutions. Recent market entrants and startups are carving out niches by offering specialized solutions that address specific industry needs or use cases, positioning themselves to scale upward as the demand for tailored edge solutions grow.
“Industrial IoT edge software platforms are unifying functionalities such as device and connectivity management, edge application enablement, developer support tools, OT data operations, and control systems into mature, comprehensive solutions. Bolstered by the recent hype provided by AI technologies, industrial edge AI represents a paradigm shift for how organizations leverage data and technology to optimize operations. Many platform vendors are integrating AI/ML model management into their edge platform offerings, as well as “copilot” products that can generate automation code and assist in management tasks,” according to Patrick Arnold, Research Analyst and key author of ARC's Industrial IoT Edge Compute Software Platforms Market Research.
