Manufacturing should work like a cloud resource

This is interesting:

A key milestone in SoftIron’s global “Edge Manufacturing” strategy, the new Sydney facility will be the company’s second location in the world, after SoftIron’s pioneering California factory, to build and manufacture hardware designed with auditable provenance for key strategic markets. To support global operations, SoftIron is also developing a digital twin in Berlin, Germany, mirroring each edge manufacturing location, enabling analysis, planning and optimisation to take place at a global level while still delivering locally manufactured product capitalising on local skills and supply chain.

Distributed manufacturing. I continue to be impressed with what people are doing in manufacturing.
