Finally, IIoT brings together different technologies correlating the Information Technology (IT) initiative for resource management, planning, and decision support systems, Operations Technology (TO) that monitors, analyzes, and controls field equipment, manufacturing, and production procedure, through AI. One of the applications of this is predictive analysis, which makes it possible to forecast a given situation in the future based on information from the past and probability. From this, it is possible to get an AI to perform a certain action corresponding to a specific sensor in the IoT network indicating a specific state of the shop floor, optimizing this activity with increased precision.

Still reflecting on the digitization of processes and the entire production chain of the industry, it is the basis of Industry 4.0, with the layers of IoT and IIoT enabling the planning, control, and even tracking of production, both by digital simulation and virtualization, winning decision-making time and cost reduction. Thus, AI and IoT are tools that drive business and guarantee a competitive advantage with the possibility of generating automated and more agile services, consequently impacting the final consumer.
