The Factory Brain: Remus Pop on Connectivity, Knowledge Graphs, and the Next Era of Operational Intelligence

Connecting plant-floor hardware is a solved problem; the real challenge is making that data act intelligently. In this episode, Travis and Tom sit down with Remus Pop, head of Concept Reply's industrial AI practice, to discuss his "Factory Brain" architecture. Remus explains why simply building dashboards isn't enough, how knowledge graphs bridge the gap between raw data and contextual intelligence, and how emerging tools like MCP and large language models are transforming plant operations. Discover why setting up robust data infrastructure on Ignition today is the key to unlocking AI tomorrow.
