Rockwell Automation and Amazon Web Services (AWS) announced they are working together to help streamline and accelerate the digital transformation of the manufacturing industry. By combining Rockwell’s operational technology (OT) with AWS's advanced cloud services and global infrastructure, manufacturers will be equipped with scalable, secure, and flexible cloud solutions that help optimize asset performance, increase operational visibility, and deliver actionable insights from raw data.
Rockwell's deep industry expertise and innovative automation solutions, combined with AWS's advanced cloud capabilities, empower manufacturers to drive digital progress more effectively. With AWS’s significant investments in industrial business units, its focus aligns with Rockwell's core markets, including life sciences, automotive and battery, consumer packaged goods and other industrial sectors. This collaboration enhances how both companies serve shared customers by seamlessly connecting data from the factory floor to the cloud, enabling advanced analytics, AI applications and industrial software solutions.
As part of this relationship, Rockwell is expanding its software-as-a-service within FactoryTalk® Hub to AWS, making its DataMosaix™ industrial DataOps solution and Fiix® computerized maintenance management system (CMMS) available in AWS Marketplace. Additional FactoryTalk Hub solutions will become available in AWS Marketplace later this year, further expanding Rockwell’s cloud-based offerings.
AWS has also joined the Rockwell Automation PartnerNetwork™ as a Technology Partner. This milestone was showcased at Hannover Messe, where Rockwell’s latest cloud-enabled industrial solutions were on display at the AWS booth. Visitors to the booth experienced live demonstrations of key Rockwell solutions, now available on AWS, including:
- FactoryTalk DataMosaix– A cloud-based data management platform that enhances industrial data accessibility and insights, powered by Rockwell’s collaboration with Cognite.
- Fiix CMMS– A computerized maintenance management system that helps manufacturers optimize asset performance, using AWS’s robust cloud infrastructure.
- Production Logistics– A single-pane-of-glass solution for managing mixed fleets of autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) with optimized real-time production scheduling using AI powered by AWS.
