This document is a guide from KPMG about Industry 4.0 and the factory of the future. It discusses the challenges that companies will face in transitioning to Industry 4.0. Key points include:
- Industry 4.0 refers to the integration of information and communication technology (ICT) and automation technology across all aspects of manufacturing, including development, production, and customers. This allows for end-to-end simulation and optimization.
- A major change will be the transition from centralized to localized production enabled by networked cyber-physical systems that can work with increasing independence.
- Companies face the challenge of achieving seamless and media-free value creation, as well as efficiently integrating product planning, development

ARC Operational Excellence Forum in Orlando Highlights
ARC’s seventh annual Driving Operational Excellence in Manufacturing
Forum was held in Orlando on February 11 and 12. This is a first in a series
of Insights to cover the considerable amount of information from the Forum.
The forum highlighted the real world experiences of end users in
their goal to achieve operational excellence. ARC also
invited many key industry executives from the leading
supplier companies to share their visions for the
future of collaborative manufacturing management
(CMM). As manufacturers move into a global business
climate that demands the integration of
manufacturing operations and business systems, collaboration
must become commonplace reality.
Collaboration must be a cultural transition that moves beyond the organizational
and functional “silos” that currently exist within most
manufacturing enterprises. Two issues that have a direct impact on how
well manufacturing operations will become integrated with the enterprise
are interoperability and complexity.

Etude PwC et Strategy& sur l'Industrie 4.0 (mars 2015)PwC France
http://bit.ly/PwC-Industrie40
Selon l’étude « Industry 4.0 » réalisée par PwC et Strategy&, quatre entreprises interrogées sur cinq auront numérisé leur chaîne de valeur d'ici 2020. L’Industrie 4.0, communément appelée l’« Internet des objets », devrait en effet être la cible des investissements des entreprises européennes au cours des cinq prochaines années. L’industrie européenne prévoit d’investir 140 milliards d’euros par an d’ici 2020, pour un gain total de chiffre d’affaires estimé à 110 milliards d’euros annuels.
Méthodologie
PwC et Stratégy& ont conduit conjointement cette étude avec le soutien de Siemens, l’association d’ingénieurs VDMA et le média Produktion. Ont été interrogées 235 entreprises allemandes, issues de 5 secteurs industriels : technologies de l’information et de la communication, télécommunications, mécanique, automobile, électronique et industries manufacturières (chimie, pétrochimie, pharmacie, alimentaire, sucre, papier, verre, acier et ciment).
Servitization: service is the future of manufacturingABN AMRO
Servitization is the process whereby services are given an increasingly important role in the business model of manufacturing companies. In addition to – and sometimes at the expense of – traditional product and machine sales. Service turns from being a cost item into an opportunity to provide better service for the customer and thereby generate additional revenue. Servitization in the manufacturing industry can consist of companies proactively offering repair and overhaul services, spare parts and training in addition to their core products. But servitization also includes broader services such as consultancy, financing, insurance and logistics services. In this report ABN AMRO and Praetimus discuss the advantages, but also the challenges involved in the transition to a service-oriented business model.

Connector Corner: Automate dynamic content and events by pushing a buttonDianaGray10
Here is something new! In our next Connector Corner webinar, we will demonstrate how you can use a single workflow to:
Create a campaign using Mailchimp with merge tags/fields
Send an interactive Slack channel message (using buttons)
Have the message received by managers and peers along with a test email for review
But there’s more:
In a second workflow supporting the same use case, you’ll see:
Your campaign sent to target colleagues for approval
If the “Approve” button is clicked, a Jira/Zendesk ticket is created for the marketing design team
But—if the “Reject” button is pushed, colleagues will be alerted via Slack message
Join us to learn more about this new, human-in-the-loop capability, brought to you by Integration Service connectors.

Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

Kubernetes & AI - Beauty and the Beast !?! @KCD Istanbul 2024Tobias Schneck
As AI technology is pushing into IT I was wondering myself, as an “infrastructure container kubernetes guy”, how get this fancy AI technology get managed from an infrastructure operational view? Is it possible to apply our lovely cloud native principals as well? What benefit’s both technologies could bring to each other?
Let me take this questions and provide you a short journey through existing deployment models and use cases for AI software. On practical examples, we discuss what cloud/on-premise strategy we may need for applying it to our own infrastructure to get it to work from an enterprise perspective. I want to give an overview about infrastructure requirements and technologies, what could be beneficial or limiting your AI use cases in an enterprise environment. An interactive Demo will give you some insides, what approaches I got already working for real.
GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!
