Industrial internet of things as the basis of intelligent production

The article is devoted to the study of the current state of the industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), its advantages and disadvantages, and the identification of development prospects. The industrial Internet of Things is fundamentally changing the economic model of supplier-consumer interaction. This makes it possible to automate the process of monitoring and managing the lifecycle of equipment, organize efficient chains from supplier enterprises to consumer companies, switch to “sharing economy” models, and much more. The article presents a model of a modern 12-layer IIoT architecture. The main advantages of IIoT are highlighted, such as increased efficiency, reduced errors, increased worker safety, and energy savings. It has been revealed that IIoT-based industrial enterprise management allows for real-time monitoring of industrial systems, supply chain management, and analysis of large amounts of data, which helps improve productivity, manage inventory and energy consumption more efficiently. At the same time, the risks and problems associated with the widespread use of IIoT have been identified, and the main ones are information security and a shortage of qualified personnel. The main directions of the industrial Internet of Things development are defined as conclusions.
