Rockwell works with AWS to transform manufacturing

Rockwell Automation has announced that it is working with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to help accelerate the digital transformation of the manufacturing sector with cloud-enabled offerings.
They say that combining Rockwell’s automation technologies and industry expertise with AWS’s cloud capabilities will help manufacturers to drive their digital progress more effectively.
“Manufacturers need flexible, scalable, and secure solutions to navigate today’s industrial challenges,” says Nicole Denil, Rockwell’s vice-president of global market access. “By collaborating with AWS, we are unlocking new opportunities for AI-driven insights, edge-to-cloud connectivity, and industrial automation advancements. This allows us to meet customers where they are and enable them to run on their cloud platform of choice.”
As part of the relationship, Rockwell is expanding its FactoryTalk Hub software-as-a-service to AWS, making its DataMosaix industrial DataOps software and Fiix computerised maintenance management system (CMMS) available via AWS’s Marketplace. More FactoryTalk Hub components will be added to the Marketplace later this year.
“Our collaboration with Rockwell Automation combines AWS’s cloud computing leadership with Rockwell’s industrial automation expertise to deliver more comprehensive and powerful solutions,” says Ozgur Tohumcu, AWS’s general manager of automotive and manufacturing. “Together, we’re empowering manufacturers to make faster decisions and optimise operations, by transforming operational data into actionable insights with AWS cloud intelligence.
“We’re not just deploying technology – we’re creating a pathway for industrial enterprises to become more agile, efficient, and competitive in today’s rapidly evolving industry.”
