Towards a Scalable IIoT Solution for Factory Monitoring

Abstract

With the declining cost of computer chip production, they have been increasingly integrated into everyday appliances and devices, giving rise to the Internet of Things. In an industrial context, these devices improve control and productivity in a production line. This paper evaluates the scalability of connections of those devices to an edge gateway, as well as the scalability of connections of edge gateways to a server platform in a simulated industrial setting.
