Over time a Digital Twin can and probably will become a "system of systems." A fundamental of Digital Twin is that it will address the long running issues with technology silos and "shadow IT" that have become the bugbear of many organizations. Knowing the role of integration platforms, APIs and open source solutions are very
Digital twin cyber refers to a virtual representation of a real-world network used for modeling performance, identifying inefficiencies, and designing solutions to improve the physical network. This platform can be utilized to reduce the evaluation costs, to enhance productivity, and to improve workforce training.
