Observability for manufacturing: OT and IT in one context
Connect production lines, MES, ERP and IoT telemetry in one topology, prevent unplanned downtime and keep the smart factory secure
OT/IT observability for the smart factory
How manufacturers link line telemetry with MES and ERP to prevent downtime.
Read nowWhen IT stops, the line stops.
Modern factories depend on MES, ERP, edge computing and IoT platforms. A failing interface can halt production as surely as a broken machine.OT and IT grow together
PLCs, SCADA, MES, ERP and cloud platforms are connected, but monitored by separate teams with separate tools.
Downtime is expensive
Every minute of unplanned downtime costs output, energy and delivery reliability. Finding the cause across systems takes too long.
Attack surface grows
Connected production increases exposure. Security requirements such as NIS2 and IEC 62443 demand monitoring and evidence.
45% less unplanned downtime from IT causes
MES, ERP and edge issues are detected and fixed before they stop the line.
80% of incidents resolved automatically
Standard incidents are remediated via runbook without human intervention.
7 days lead time on capacity bottlenecks
Predictions for edge clusters and storage ahead of production peaks.
1 topology for OT and IT
Lines, edge devices, MES and ERP in one dependency graph.
Observability use cases for Manufacturing
From the shop floor to the top floor: where manufacturers start with Obseria.Production and shop floor
Edge and IIoT platforms
Monitor edge gateways, Kubernetes at the edge and IoT brokers that collect machine data across plants.
Infrastructure observabilityMES and line applications
Trace orders and production steps through MES, quality systems and line control software.
Application observabilityOEE context
Correlate OEE and throughput with IT signals to separate machine issues from system issues.
Business observabilityEnterprise and supply chain
ERP and order-to-cash
Process monitoring across SAP, EDI and supplier portals from order to delivery.
Business observabilitySupplier and logistics interfaces
Detect failing EDI messages, delayed confirmations and API errors before they disrupt supply.
IntegrationsIndustrial data platforms
Observe data pipelines and analytics platforms that feed quality and maintenance decisions.
PlatformSecurity and resilience
OT/IT threat detection
Detect vulnerabilities and suspicious activity in connected production systems at runtime.
Application securityAutomated remediation
Restart services, fail over edge workloads and open tickets automatically within approved policies.
AutomationCausal root cause
Obseria Intelligence follows dependencies from line to ERP and names the cause with evidence.
Obseria IntelligenceSecure, resilient production
Manufacturers face growing security requirements for connected production. Obseria provides the monitoring and evidence to meet them.
- NIS2Incident detection, documentation and reporting support for essential and important entities.
- IEC 62443Monitoring and logging evidence for industrial automation security.
- Cyber Resilience ActVulnerability visibility for connected products and their software components.
- TISAX and ISO 27001Certified platform operation for automotive and industrial supply chains.
- Data residencyOperation in EU regions, at the edge or in your own data center.
Half of our line stoppages turned out to be IT problems, but nobody could see that at three in the morning. Now the night shift sees the cause within minutes.

Obseria monitors the IT side of production (edge gateways, IoT brokers, MES, SCADA servers and their interfaces) and ingests OT data via standard protocols and OpenTelemetry. It does not replace safety-certified control systems.
Yes. Collectors and agents run on edge gateways and edge Kubernetes clusters and buffer data during network interruptions.
Obseria provides incident detection, audit-proof logs and vulnerability visibility, key evidence for both frameworks. Certification of your systems remains your responsibility.
Yes. Obseria integrates SAP, common MES platforms and EDI interfaces via the Integrations Hub, APIs and OpenTelemetry.
Data can stay in EU regions, on-premises or at the edge. Access is controlled at field level and every query is auditable.
