Cloud-Based Manufacturing (CBM) Interoperability in Industry 4.0

Cloud computing (CC) is generating new computing and business models because of its service-based nature, which enables collaboration and data exchange at higher level, more flexibility with better efficiency and parallel decreasing costs. Manufacturing environments can also benefit from cloud technology and follow fast changes in market demands. In these new scenarios, interoperability has vital importance in the operation and in the interaction among industrial realizations of cyber-physical systems. The chapter introduces the different cloud models and the interoperability issues concerning connected enterprise information systems. Various standardization frameworks have been developed for homogeneous integration of IT models in industrial environments: the IIRA and the RAMI 4.0 are the best-known ones. The chapter introduces both architectures; their methodological approach to industrial integration efforts and how integration can be realized through the OPC Unified Architecture. Finally, the authors propose a basic conceptual model for cloud manufacturing.
