By Huang Haifeng, Senior Technology Reporter
The global Industrial Internet is currently at a critical stage of development and large-scale expansion. Developing the Industrial Internet represents a new route for countries to gain a dominant position in industries and reshape their industrial systems. IP technologies, such as 5G, F5G, and intelligent cloud-network, are important steps in the evolution of next-gen information technologies, while the Industrial Internet can offer key support for the fourth industrial revolution. The combination of the two has risen towards the top of the agenda for many countries and industries in 2021, and this will continue for next few years.
China has already made remarkable achievements in platform cultivation and platform application for the Industrial Internet, developing over 100 platforms and connecting 73 million sets of industrial equipment. Various technologies have proved to be extremely powerful: Enterprises are able to connect people, machines, environments, and platforms with digital technologies for the in-depth integration of production systems, management systems, and network systems.
