Rugged highly reliable embedded computing solutions
By George T. Hilliard In my last blog, Arm or x86? Future-Proofing Your Industrial SBC Figures Prominently, Part 1, I looked at the first two of four considerations when determining whether your path toward an industrial single-board computer (SBC) should guide you towards the Intel x86 camp or toward an Arm-based processor. There, I… Read More »

Organizations that rely heavily on data are increasingly likely to use cloud, fog, and edge computing infrastructures. These architectures allow organizations to take advantage of a variety of computing and data storage resources, including the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). Cloud, fog and edge computing may appear similar, but they are different layers of the… Read More »

As the usage of smart devices, laptops, tablets, and personal computers has expanded, so too has the Internet. The Internet of Things includes all of the devices – some quite intelligent, others quite simplistic – that are now connected to the Internet and therefore an overarching infrastructure. Encompassed within the Internet of Things (IoT) is the industrial Internet… Read More »

Industrial-strength IoT (Internet of Things) If you want to compare IIoT vs IoT, we’ll probably need to define the Internet of Things first. The term refers to the connection of devices (the Things) through the internet so they can collect and share data without human assistance. IoT devices range from smart thermostats to vehicle systems… Read More »

The term Internet of Things or IoT continues to build momentum in technology circles with new publications, trade shows and marketing pieces throughout numerous technology industries. However, many still have the same question, “What does it really mean?” Part of the confusion may be that so many levels of processing and communication are actually involved… Read More »

Single Board Computers Single board computers (SBCs) are functional computers built on a single circuit board including microprocessor, memory, input/output (I/O) and other required features. Unlike desktop personal computers, sbc’s typically operate without requiring expansion slots for peripheral functions and are optimized for smaller form factors. Single board computers use a wide variety of processors with… Read More »
