The Next Generation Of Industrial Automation:
In a recent article from Schneider Electric, it was reported that the separation of automation hardware from software is revolutionizing businesses.

This shift also facilitates a smoother transition into Industry 4.0 and beyond, fostering greater efficiency and innovation in the industrial sector through new forms of virtualization.

This digital transformation enables tasks previously reliant on combined hardware and software to become more virtual, enhancing operational efficiency and advancing automation paradigms.
