Industrial AI: Data Platforms

Use the LNS Research Solution Selection Matrix™ to Create Your Shortlist of Industrial AI Platform Vendors

 Industrial data problems didn't start with AI, and they won't end with it either. As manufacturers accelerate Industrial AI initiatives, the ability to identify the right data platform vendors has never been more critical.
 

To support this, LNS Research has created the Industrial AI: Data Platforms Solution Selection Matrix™ (SSM), a comprehensive, research-backed guide that helps manufacturers understand, evaluate, and compare Industrial AI Data Platform providers.

Drawing on extensive research and vendor assessments, this guidebook explains how Industrial AI Data Platforms work, from data connectivity and contextualization to decision intelligence and advanced analytics, and how they fit within the broader Industrial AI capability stack. It highlights how vendors are incorporating Industrial DataOps, digital twin models, no-code/low-code development environments, and agentic AI capabilities to support modern industrial operations.
