HighByte Expands Cloud Integration with Native Support for Amazon S3 Tables, Bridging Edge and Cloud for Industrial Data
In a significant move to enhance data accessibility and usability in the cloud, HighByte®, an innovator in industrial software, has announced a new native integration with Amazon Web Services (AWS) that supports Amazon S3 Tables. This development, now available in HighByte Intelligence Hub, empowers global manufacturers to build open, transactional data lakes for their industrial data. By leveraging Amazon S3 Tables, manufacturers can optimize the management, performance, and storage of tabular data specifically designed for analytics workloads, driving more efficient operations and enabling real-time decision-making.
This announcement underscores HighByte’s commitment to bridging the gap between operational technology (OT) and information technology (IT) systems—a persistent challenge in the manufacturing and industrial sectors. With this latest release, HighByte is helping organizations overcome siloed data processes and fragmented systems, enabling seamless integration and scalability for industrial data across edge and cloud environments.
Bridging the OT-IT Divide with AWS
“Our collaboration with AWS highlights the transformative potential of combining industrial data expertise with cutting-edge cloud technology,” said John Harrington, Chief Product Officer and Co-Founder at HighByte. “We are dedicated to providing market-leading solutions that empower manufacturers to seamlessly integrate, scale, and leverage their industrial data. The ultimate goal is to drive operational efficiency, enable real-time decision-making, and deliver cost optimization for our customers.”
Manufacturing and industrial companies have long grappled with disconnected OT and IT systems, which hinder innovation and limit the ability to derive actionable insights from data. In 2021, HighByte took its first step toward addressing this challenge by launching an initial integration with AWS cloud services. Since then, the company has expanded interoperability from the Intelligence Hub to nearly a dozen AWS services, driven by increasing customer demand and more sophisticated use cases.
With the release of HighByte Intelligence Hub version 4.1, customers can now decouple OT data from its original source and store it efficiently using Amazon S3 Tables. This capability not only simplifies data management but also ensures that industrial data is primed for advanced analytics, machine learning, and AI-driven insights.
HighByte’s Growing Momentum on AWS Marketplace
HighByte’s collaboration with AWS has gained significant traction over the past year. Since becoming available on AWS Marketplace in June 2023, HighByte achieved ISV Accelerate status in October 2023 and earned the prestigious AWS Manufacturing and Industrial Software Competency in August 2024. These milestones reflect HighByte’s deep expertise in industrial data integration and its alignment with AWS’s mission to support digital transformation in the manufacturing sector.
Customers leveraging HighByte’s solutions on AWS are well-positioned to benefit from this ongoing momentum. The combination of HighByte’s industrial data expertise and AWS’s scalable cloud infrastructure provides a robust foundation for building AI-ready data pipelines, optimizing operations, and driving innovation.
Real-World Impact: Transforming Industrial Operations
One notable example of HighByte’s impact comes from Vivix Vidros Planos, a leading manufacturer of flat glass. According to Aristóteles Terceiro Neto, Industrial Transformation Manager at Vivix, “HighByte Intelligence Hub has fundamentally transformed how we architect and utilize data in our plant. It has enabled us to build a digital infrastructure that improves operational efficiency and supports data-driven decision-making for consistent production of high-quality glass. The low-code approach is particularly valuable, allowing us to implement changes quickly and efficiently. We’re excited about the innovations coming from HighByte and the positive impact they will have on our business.”
This testimonial highlights the tangible benefits of HighByte’s solutions, including improved operational efficiency, better decision-making, and enhanced product quality. By making industrial data AI-ready, HighByte is helping manufacturers unlock new levels of productivity and competitiveness in an increasingly data-driven world.
