Rugged highly reliable embedded computing solutions
Some industries caught on to the need for security before others, like those in the mission-critical space and those that potentially protect lives or money. But widespread adoption has not occurred. And it seems like hacking has almost become a sport for the bad guys. As we move forward, the amount of critical data that’s… Read More »

In Part 1 of this two-part blog, COTS, Custom, or Something In-Between: Balancing Cost, Time to Market, and Value Add, we looked at the differences between commercial off-the-shelf (COTS), custom, and semi-custom designs. In other words, do I buy existing hardware, have the vendor design something that’s specific to my needs, or is there something in between?… Read More »

We’re just coming off Embedded World, the largest trade show on the planet for embedded and industrial computing. While there were tons of “solutions” present, one question still seems to be in the back of the developer’s mind: Do I build it myself or buy an off-the-shelf solution? Or is there a third option? … Read More »

It’s all about the operational environment An industrial computer is a computing platform that has been ruggedized for specific industrial applications that must function in sometimes harsh environments. Its computing capabilities are generally similar to an equivalent commercial PC in terms of storage, processing and communications. However, industrial computers are often designed to use less… 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 »
