74% of manufacturers get stuck in pilot purgatory, and the database is usually where it falls apart first. This session breaks down the performance envelope that every IIoT system hits when scaling from PoC to production: storage costs that compound quadratically, ingest bottlenecks that appear without warning, and query degradation that turns real-time dashboards into loading screens. You’ll learn how to map your system’s limits before you hit them and what architectural choices actually move the ceiling instead of just buying time.
