Resilient digital twins - essential in the age of AI and automation

When we think about the autonomous future, one of the first things that springs to mind is driverless cars. Like many, you might’ve balked at the idea of technology quite literally taking the wheel. Perhaps you still do. But self-driving vehicles are a good analogy for the technology that we should really be thinking about in the drive to intelligent automation and the autonomous enterprise.

Instead of orchestrating the moving mechanical parts of a car, a DTO aims to autonomously orchestrate the moving parts of a business – its processes. By now, we’re well versed in the way digital twin technology replicates a physical object, with sensors enabling real-time data to flow between the real and virtual versions.
