Schneider Electric says the deal advances its vision of creating intelligent industrial ecosystems that connect physical assets with digital insights across the asset life cycle.
With the latest addition, the Italian major’s computational capacity passes the exaflop threshold, making the firm the world’s leading company by computing power in the new TOP500 global ranking.
This case study describes how edge computing and industrial internet of things platforms were deployed to automate and optimize production operations across four distinct basins.

As shale plays are becoming economically viable, operators have fast-adopted best practices to optimize drilling and completion processes to drive down the lifting costs. Adoption of data-driven analytics to improve completion design, drive efficiency, and yield economic gains has been less swift. -
Saudi Aramco and Raytheon signed a memorandum of understanding to establish a joint venture that will develop and provide cybersecurity services in Saudi Arabia and the region.
