Monitoring critical industrial machinery is essential to maintaining operational continuity and minimizing downtime. As technology advances, companies must choose between on-premise or cloud-based monitoring solutions. This presentation will analyze the advantages and disadvantages of these approaches and how to apply them based on the specific needs of different industries.

On-premise solutions offer complete control over data and enhanced security in sensitive environments, while cloud solutions provide remote access, instant scalability, and seamless integration with emerging technologies like AI.

We will explore how each approach can be adapted to sectors such as petrochemical, energy, and manufacturing, and examine the factors influencing the selection of one solution over the other. We will also review how hybrid edge-solutions are emerging as an effective option, offering flexibility and remote access without sacrificing local control.

Through practical case studies, we will discuss the criteria that should guide the choice between a local or remote solution and how the right strategy can reduce maintenance costs, improve efficiency, and ensure safe, continuous operations.
