Distributed Cloud is a term used in the fields of digital transformation, industry and Industry 4.0, and artificial intelligence. It describes a new way of providing computing power and IT services. Unlike traditional cloud providers, where data is usually stored and processed centrally in one location, Distributed Cloud distributes these functions across various locations \u2013 often closer to the actual point of use or the customer.<\/p>\n
This makes the Distributed Cloud faster and more flexible. Companies benefit from this as they can run time-critical applications. Furthermore, Distributed Cloud helps to better comply with security requirements and data protection, as data can remain within a specific region, for example.<\/p>\n
A practical example: An international company operates factories in Europe, Asia, and America. With Distributed Cloud, each factory receives its own cloud resources directly on-site. This allows machines to communicate with each other in real-time, and failures can be detected and rectified more quickly. At the same time, the data remains close to the production site, which increases security.<\/p>\n
The Distributed Cloud opens up new opportunities for businesses in automation, efficiency and improved customer experiences \u2013 all without complicated in-house developments.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
