JD Edwards ERP has been at the forefront of developing IoT solutions.  The video at the bottom of this blog on
Oracle’s IoT solution is well-worth watching if you are interested in Industry 4.0. There is a good mix of topics and includes a general overview, some customer case-studies as well as predictions of how IoT will evolve.

Business Value of IoT



Some of the key takeaways include:
