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.

The goal is to support the development and sharing of best-practice approaches for project delivery and asset operations using cloud services and digital workflows in engineering and operations. -
The federal agency now charged with overseeing cybersecurity for US pipelines is ill equipped to do the job, say two top regulators who want the role given to the Energy Department.

Ground sensors on assets over a broad area have limited returns on investment if the asset life cycle is less than 10 years, and obsolescence of the technology if it exceeds 10 years. Complementing sensors with aerial remote sensing at scale may help to mitigate these issues.
