Beyond the Cloud – Manufacturing’s New Frontier. “In the age of Industry 4.0, only those manufacturers that unite rock-solid infrastructure, real-time data, and secure cloud strategies will survive the next wave of disruption.”
In this episode of Digital Mandate, JMS Mining’s Head of IT shares frontline lessons from large-scale cloud migrations and digital transformation in India’s manufacturing sector:
Cloud Migrations Unpacked: Why “lift & shift” is deceptively simple, and how latency, security, and data transfer become make-or-break challenges at scale.
Seamless ERP, Seamless Operations: The critical role of database replication and centralized API routing to synchronize data and processes across sprawling plant networks.
Edge Intelligence: How smart sensors and near-data centers unlock predictive maintenance and real-time insights—turning every mine or factory into a data-driven powerhouse.
Data for AI Readiness: Why Master Data Management (MDM) is the forgotten link in the AI chain, unifying messy legacy, ERP, and CRM data before true automation can take hold.
AI Agents, Digital Twins & In-Memory Computing: How emerging technologies like in-memory platforms (SAP HANA) and real-time digital twins are reshaping operational thinking and plant safety.
Security as Strategy: Why infrastructure and cybersecurity investment are non-negotiable—even as many mid-sized industries underestimate their critical value.
