Beyond the Great Resignation: A Resilient Workforce
The "Great Resignation" has sent shockwaves through every industry, and Operational Technology (OT) is no exception. In Part 2 of our webinar series, drawing on key findings from the 1st Annual State of Industrial DevOps Workforce Report, we'll tackle the critical workforce challenges facing manufacturers and explore proven strategies for building a resilient and future-ready team.

Modern Backup Strategies for Industrial Automation
Regularly backing up data protects vital files and minimizes disruptions. Backups safeguard against human errors, hardware failures, malicious attacks, power outages, and natural disasters. Ultimately they save time and money when failures occur. New tools streamline backup processes by automatically and frequently retrieving files directly from control devices. Copia’s DeviceLink is one such tool. Combined with its Git-based source control, it not only retrieves and stores files but also detects, notifies, and visually displays any changes.

Industrial DevOps Workforce: PLC's to AI Chat
Join us for the this on demand installment of our groundbreaking webinar series, based on the findings from the 1st Annual State of Industrial DevOps Workforce Report, as we embark on a journey through the evolution of industrial automation, from the early days of Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs) to the transformative potential of Artificial Intelligence (AI). We will be joined by former Gartner analyst, Rick Franzosa! Rick Franzosa, an analyst with Gormally Franzosa Associates, has over forty years’ experience in manufacturing software technology. He was most recently a Gartner analyst in the Supply Chain Operations team, where he focused on manufacturing operations technology systems research. He worked with vice presidents and directors of manufacturing, business process experts and enterprise architecture and IT roles supporting manufacturing operations. He also worked with providers of technologies and services for manufacturing operations. Prior to joining Gartner in 2014, Mr. Franzosa worked in the software industry with manufacturing operations software companies. His roles included almost all facets of the software business, including software development, sales, marketing, consulting, implementation and client support. Prior to that, his experience included work in design engineering, test engineering and manufacturing engineering in the aerospace and defense industry. He is currently working independently, sharing his experience with organizations that are pursuing manufacturing software technology evolution.

Industrial DevOps: The Foundation for the AI Factory of the Future
In today’s rapidly evolving industrial landscape, the convergence of artificial intelligence (AI), and advanced automation is transforming how we manufacture and distribute goods. At the heart of this transformation lies a critical enabler: Industrial DevOps. Industrial DevOps extends the principles of traditional DevOps — continuous integration, continuous delivery, and collaboration between development and operations — to the unique demands of industrial environments. This approach is essential for building the “AI factory of the future,” where intelligent machines and systems work seamlessly together to optimize production, enhance efficiency, and drive innovation.
