Edge Computing Application Guide for Industrial Applications

1 Scope

GB/T 44860-2024 gives the Chinese application guidelines for edge computing in industrial settings. Edge computing is often described in terms of latency, but in a factory the reasons are more specific: the control loop cannot wait for a round trip to a cloud, the network to the plant is not reliable enough to depend on, the data volumes from vision and vibration sensing are too large to ship, and the operator will not let process data leave the site. The standard sets the industrial edge computing application architecture and then works through the application: the deployment patterns and where the edge node sits relative to the control system, the capabilities required of the edge platform in computing, storage, networking and real-time behaviour, the data acquisition, processing and synchronisation with the cloud, the application lifecycle and orchestration, the interoperability with existing automation systems, the security and the operation and maintenance, together with the typical application scenarios that illustrate each. It takes effect on 1 May 2025.

This document provides guidance on the application architecture, equipment selection, application indicators, and application models of industrial edge computing. This document is suitable for industrial system integrators, edge computing equipment suppliers, network operators in the "cloud-edge- Design of new edge computing solutions, network construction, and selection of edge computing equipment based on "end-to-end" collaboration.
