Bots and More: Modernizing your IT Backbone for Data-driven Manufacturing

Manufacturers are under intense pressure to deliver the right products and services more efficiently and cheaply. In addition to offshoring and outsourcing, manufacturers in all sectors are adopting bots, artificial intelligence (AI), and more to help them meet their objectives.

At the heart of this digital transformation are oceans of structured and unstructured data. Many manufacturers are unable to fully capture, analyze, and manage this data as their IT backbones were not designed to support IoT devices, deep learning, and hybrid cloud.

IBM and key business partners will examine key data challenges; and suggest where firms can start their IT modernization to support their digital transformation.
