A robot arm doesn’t care where the server lives
There is no single safest option. Cloud, on-premises and hybrid setups can all protect robotics systems well. They just split responsibility differently, and most factories end up blending them.
Sounds neat on paper. In practice, it’s messy. A welding cell, a fleet of warehouse robots and a vision-inspection camera all produce data.
Somebody has to decide where that data lives, who touches it and what happens when something breaks at 3am (Production lines rarely fail at convenient hours.) [Read more…] about Cloud, on-premises or hybrid: Securing robotics infrastructure
