Data response layer
This core layer evaluates the data coming from the devices or applications and produces an automatic predefined response from the network edge. Imagine that a jet engine’s temperature
reading is 50 degrees over the limit.
An automatic rule is invoked: if the data point is out of bounds, the computer responds by kicking off a series of processes that are bound to the data point to bring the reading back in
bounds, such as reducing the engine’s fuel flow or revolutions per minute.
This occurs autonomously without the need for the centralized processes and data, although they sync at predefined points.
The resulting outcome is stored in the knowledge base as a learned response, as well as any necessary changes to the approach that would make for a better resolution to that situation in the future.
