sites are usually remote, with limited or no onsite technical expertise. If something fails onsite, it would not be easy to get it fixed quickly.
3. The physical security of edge sites is often much lower than that of core sites. An edge strategy must account fora greater risk of accidental situations.
Digital Twin A digital twin is a digital representation
of a physical object, processor service. The technology behind digital twins has expanded to include large items such as buildings,
factories, and even cities. It can be used to replicate processes to collect data to predict how they will perform. It uses simulation,
machine learning, and reasoning to help with decision-making.
How Does Digital Twin Technology Work The life of a digital twin begins with experts in applied mathematics or data science researching the physics and operational data of a physical objector system to develop a mathematical model that simulates the original. The twin is constructed so that it can receive input from sensors gathering data from a real-world counterpart. This allows the twin to simulate the
physical object in real-time, in the process offering insights into performance and potential problems. The twin could also be designed based on a prototype of its physical counterpart, in which case the twin can provide feedback as the product is refined a twin could even serve as a prototype itself before any physical version is built.
Applications: Digital twins are already extensively used in the following applications:
Manufacturing operations Since digital twins are meant to mirror a product’s entire lifecycle, it’s not surprising that digital twins have become ubiquitous
in all stages of manufacturing, guiding products from design to finished product.
