Open the era of IT/OT integration

In industries from manufacturing to energy, from automotive to aerospace, executives and engineeringleaders are urgently seeking innovative solutions to meet rising demands for operational resilience, strongsecurity, and seamless integration of information technology (IT) and operational technology (OT). Platforms Wind River, in collaboration with ServiceNow and major global systems integrators, offers next-generationIT/OT solutions based on Wind River®Cloud Platform and ServiceNow’s workflow automation. The combined BREAKING DOWN BARRIERS BETWEEN IT AND OT Modern industries are increasingly challenged by the growing gap between their IT infrastructure and the OT used on facto-ry floors, remote sites, and complex networks. OT devices are often kept separate from the broader enterprise IT system. Having fragmented setups can introduce security risks and complicate management. Manufacturing OT devices andcontrol functions often have limited resources, are poorly managed, and lack effective connections to cloud platforms,which hampers operational efficiency and scalability. Siloed IT and OT infrastructures often duplicate functions, resulting In short, the lack of seamless coordination between IT and OT systems acts as a barrier to unified control, comprehensive To address these issues, Wind River hosts ServiceNow management, instrumentation, and discovery (MID) servers onboth Cloud Platform and eLxr ProTM. Combined with existing OT vendor solutions, this approach enables unprecedent-ed levels of operational workflow automation, asset security, and management. Integrated features for IT operationsmanagement and IT Infrastructure Library (ITIL) provide real-time control and visibility into OT devices, while automated The IT/OT Architecture Wind River and ServiceNow technologies create seamless integration between the worlds of IT and OT EDGE PROCESSING IN OT ENVIRONMENTS Legacy systems often hinder digital transformation efforts with outdated, proprietary interfaces that have limited networkaccess and bandwidth. With these restrictions, it can be difficult to obtain the valuable operational data needed for accurate Cloud Platform addresses these issues by enabling organizations to process and analyze data at the edge, right next torobotics, production lines, and equipment — allowing OT devices to export telemetry data. This data can then be imported Processing data at the edge, within OT environments, establishes strong connections between OT devices, managementsystems, and enterprise IT applications and enables near-instant data collection. It creates new opportunities for predictivemaintenance and advanced operational AI. Plant managers and engineers gain real-time insights, allowing them to identify THE WIND RIVER AND SERVICENOW MODEL The combined technologies of Wind River and ServiceNow allow organizations to deploy automated blueprints for provi-sioning Cloud Platform sub-clouds — small, medium, and large. Critical OT functions, including ServiceNow’s MID Server This represents a significant shift in how OT assets are managed and workflows are coordinated. Wind River Conduc-tor’s blueprints quickly set up cloud environments across both IT and OT domains, while Cloud Platform oversees oper-ational functions at each site. Lifecycle automation provides comprehensive management of ServiceNow workloads Wind River Analytics is seamlessly integrated into both Cloud Platform and eLxr Pro, serving as the core operationalintelligence in modern industrial settings. The platform efficiently collects a wide variety of sensor, control, and processdata from edge devices and OT systems, then reliably transmits this information to a destination of the customer’s TURNING OT DATA INTO ACTIONABLE INTELLIGENCE Industrial producers face significant challenges in their OT devices, such as unexpected downtime, limited visibility,compliance issues, and configuration drift. These challenges are worsened by aging assets and oversized infrastructure Cloud Platform and eLxrPro, integrated with ServiceNow, directly tackle these challenges. The integrated analytics of OTdata enables organizations to quickly identify and resolve failures, thereby maximizing uptime and stability. Automatedasset and event management provides business units with strong operational control, reducing reliance on resource-in- The impact of these technologies is further strengthened through strategic partnerships with major global systems in-tegrators, delivering platforms that provide unified asset management and orchestration across complex infrastructure WHERE INDUSTRIAL OPERATIONS GO NEXT Wind River is leading the way in industrial modernization, offering organizations tools to protect, accelerate, andfuture-proof their OT environments. Integrating this technology with ServiceNow enhances the value of both, resulting ina powerful combination that provides operational intelligence and a resilient system. Together, the pairing immediate
