Manufacturers face immense pressure to produce more goods with higher quality while improving process agility. Edge computing has emerged as a solution, allowing the integration of AI/ML technologies for predictive maintenance and quality inspection. Audi, a trailblazer in this field, has revolutionized its factory automation by transforming its edge deployment stack to virtualize not only industrial PCs (IPCs), but also programmable logic controllers (PLCs). In this session, we explore Audi’s innovative use of VMware Edge Compute Stack to run virtualized programmable logic controllers. We discuss the shift to software-defined automation, considerations for supporting low-latency workloads and collaboration with technology partners. Join us to learn from Audi’s successful deployment and gain insights for your own shop floor scenarios.
