Industrial equipment with analytics overlays

Industrial IoT & Analytics

Turning plant data into decisions you can act on.

Industrial IoT connects sensors, machines, and control systems into a continuous stream of operating data. Depending on the problem, that data feeds anomaly detection, pattern search, process optimization, or predictive maintenance — the most widely used of these, but far from the only one.

Connect sensors, SCADA, historians, and IoT connectors capture continuous plant data
Analyze anomaly detection, pattern search, and signal analysis turn raw data into insight
Act dashboards, alerts, and models translate analysis into a decision
IIoT analytics flow: Connect (sensors, SCADA, historians, IoT connectors) leads to Analyze (anomaly detection, pattern search, predictive maintenance, batch and process anomalies, OT pattern detection, decision support) leads to Act (dashboards, alerts, and workflows).

Applications

Where IIoT analytics gets used.

IIoT data supports several distinct kinds of analysis, each suited to a different problem. Predictive maintenance tends to get the most attention because it's the most widely deployed, but it's one application among several.

Anomaly Detection

Flagging observations or patterns that fall outside normal operating behavior, without needing every fault type labeled in advance.

Pattern Search

Finding recurring or hidden structure in time-series data, using methods such as matrix profile analysis.

Predictive Maintenance

The most widely used IIoT application: reading sensor trends to catch a developing equipment fault before it causes downtime.

Batch & Process Anomalies

Real-time anomaly detection within batch processes, catching issues early enough to prevent a failed batch.

OT Pattern Detection

Spotting abnormal patterns in operational technology data collected from plant systems.

Decision Support

Turning validated data into dashboards, alerts, and workflows that support energy, process, and operating decisions.

Techniques

How the data is captured and read.

Each application above draws on a smaller set of underlying techniques for capturing a signal and turning it into features a model or a person can use.

  1. IIoT Sensing & Integration Sensors, SCADA, historians, and IoT connectors stream operating data from existing plant systems.
  2. Signal & Time-Series Processing Statistical, spectral, and pattern-based features turn a raw signal into inputs a model can actually use.
