Talk:Operational technology

Questions about OT and IoT
How does OT correlate to the Internet of Things (IoT). Are OT enabled assets the participants of the IoT? I assume that the previous is true if (and only if) we connect the OT to the internet. If we use a closed network then we have a simply a second network with OT enabled assets. Correct?

OT
How do you distinguish Operational Technology from Cybernetics and Industrial Automation? Methinks OT is a fairly recent term. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dan Oom (talk • contribs) 16:19, 4 November 2018 (UTC)
 * I believe the term has only come into common usage in the last 5 years or so. Because Gartner has defined it and many others use it, I believe it is notable enough to need an article. Are you interested in collaborating to improve the article? My Gussie (talk) 11:39, 13 October 2020 (UTC)

IT > OT: OT is already part of IT, it's a sub amount
Because even if we monitor through sensors, in the end data is created to evaluate by computers and those are then the decision makers through a FSM of some sort (very simplistic AI, or rather AC: Artificial Controller). Those decisions are then send to certain hardware to process: E.g. run motor to close gate.

That has of course has operational influence. But so has IT in general already - IT had from the beginning influence on business processes, through IoT on hardware, too.

But I personally see no difference between IT and OT, OT is just an sub amount of it, focused on hardware.
