I discuss the current relationship that Cisco and Rockwell have developed and how it is enabling real value for manufacturing customers.

Watch the video and you’ll see how Cisco and Rockwell Automation are helping customers integrate their plant’s with the enterprise IT; how they can increase asset efficiency, improve their products; and increase operational efficiency. Some of the key initiatives are how OEMs can integrate with customer networks and the networks still be easy to use and operated by the customer or even by the OEM, remotely.

I describe how the joint partnership is helping efficiency and increases customer value.  Cisco and Rockwell are working on  lots of other initiatives important to automation and control environments, especially around high-availability, resiliency, security, wireless integration and much more.
