Siemens and Schuler have a long history of cooperation. Both companies are committed to driving digitalization and focusing on customer satisfaction. With edge computing, you can combine the security policies of IT with the flexibility required by OT. The main reasons we joined the Industrial Edge Ecosystem were the ability to centrally manage devices and applications, plus the concept of using off-the-shelf apps and writing your own apps, which is a very good fit for us.
