Bright Machines enables live factory data access via secure air-gapped system

Bright Machines has developed a novel system to provide live factory dashboards to customers without compromising the air-gapped security of their manufacturing plants. The solution leverages Debezium for change data capture from PostgreSQL databases at the factory edge, writes this data to Apache Iceberg, and transmits it via a single outbound path. Databricks, utilizing Unity Catalog and AWS Glue federation, then accesses this data in place, enabling real-time querying and dashboard refreshes within minutes. AI

IMPACT Enables secure, real-time data access for manufacturing analytics and AI applications in sensitive environments.
