The Industrial Cloud Gateway is the core component for industrial data collection; it connects industrial plants to Alibaba’s cloud infrastructure. The unit also serves as an edge computing device that serialises, analyses and makes decisions in real time on site, thus reducing the burden on the cloud infrastructure. In addition, the accessible device helps to improve the flexibility of production, reduce the related costs and optimise the use of materials.
