Cloud conversations often break down in manufacturing for one simple reason. Production doesn’t tolerate risk.
Manufacturers face challenges most cloud marketing ignores:
- Production systems that can’t handle latency
- Legacy applications that can’t move to the cloud cleanly
- Equipment and systems that must remain on-prem
- Multiple sites with inconsistent connectivity
- Security and compliance concerns tied to data and IP
- Fear of downtime during migrations
For many California manufacturers, these challenges are amplified by distributed facilities, compliance requirements, and infrastructure that has grown over time.
Manufacturers don’t reject the cloud. They reject anything that threatens uptime.
