Microsoft Azure Stack HCI is a hyperconverged infrastructure solution that integrates virtualized storage, computing, and networking into a single package. It allows manufacturing companies to leverage cloud benefits while maintaining local control. This solution enhances data-driven approaches, improves security, and supports critical production systems, all while being adaptable to the unique challenges of the factory environment.
How does Azure Stack HCI improve manufacturing operations?
Azure Stack HCI helps manufacturers by providing centralized visibility and management across various sites, enabling real-time data collection and analysis. It supports high availability and disaster recovery, allowing for predictive maintenance and reducing unplanned downtime. Additionally, it offers scalability and flexibility, making it easier for manufacturers to adapt to changing demands and improve overall efficiency.
What are the cost benefits of using Azure Stack HCI?
Manufacturers can achieve significant cost savings with Azure Stack HCI. For instance, one global manufacturer reported a 40% reduction in computing hardware costs and a 30% decrease in operational technology-related downtimes. The pay-as-you-go model allows companies to only pay for the capacity they need, reducing overhead costs and simplifying resource management, which can lead to further financial efficiencies.
