Microsoft Azure for Your modern, Data-Driven Production

The illustrated architecture demonstrates how Microsoft Azure serves as the central foundation for capturing, storing, processing, and leveraging your production and enterprise data. From using Azure IoT Edge to collect machine data in real time, to powerful storage solutions such as Azure SQL Server and Azure Data Lake, through to advanced analytics with Azure Machine Learning and Databricks, and visualization via Power BI – a holistic solution for your data-driven decision making.

Source: Capturing Your Data

Azure IoT Edge collects machine data directly at the source and securely transfers it to the cloud. At the same time, data from systems such as MES, PLM, ERP, or CRM can also be integrated, enabling both structured and unstructured data to be consolidated centrally via Azure Data Factory – creating your single point of truth.

Ingest & Store: Data Processing & Storage

Services such as Azure SQL Server, Microsoft Fabric, or Azure Data Lake (Gen2) provide flexible and scalable storage of large volumes of data, accessible and expandable at any time.

Azure Event Hub, IoT Hubs, and Azure Data Factory enable data extraction from your sources, followed by transformation and loading of the processed data, for example into a data warehouse.

Process: Analyse and Prediction

Analytics with Azure Stream Analytics and advanced modeling techniques in Azure Databricks or Azure Machine Learning enable both real-time insights into your data and the development of predictive models for machine maintenance and manufacturing quality.

Serve: Providing Insights

Power BI visualizes the insights gained from your centralized data foundation. Decision-makers gain real-time visibility into production, strengthening cross-departmental collaboration and promoting data-driven decision-making.
