How Edge Computing Solutions Converged OT and IT, and Shortened FAT/SAT Cycles for a Life Sciences Customer
A webinar with the CSIA featuring RoviSys
Why It Matters:
Working with a large Life Sciences company, RoviSys, a global automation SI, proposed a fault tolerant Edge Computing solution to increase reliability of the company’s manufacturing operations and GAMP reporting. The solution dramatically simplified IT infrastructure and enabled the OT team to deploy and maintain new infrastructure without on-site IT support. Importantly, RoviSys’ key to success was running a successful PoC and using a solution that reduced FAT/SAT from weeks to days. With the trust built from this success, RoviSys has expanded its end user engagement for additional projects.
Aaron Hoffman, Systems Engineer at RoviSys, will share how the team:
- Developed an Edge Computing solution to supplant traditional server clusters, improve data reliability, and consolidate software workloads
- Standardized and scaled computing throughout different Life Sciences facilities and use cases
- Reduced the test and validation process from weeks to days
- Summarized the benefits of Edge Computing from an SI’s point-of-view
