factory_cells#

Factory-cells infrastructure pattern.

The factory-cells pattern models repeated production cells connected to plant-edge compute, suitable for industrial monitoring and assembly workloads. Each cell is organised around a local controller with its machines and sensors, while one or more plant-edge nodes aggregate traffic across cells and optionally uplink to a cloud tier.

The pattern combines two QoS domains: short, high-quality local links inside a cell for operational traffic, and slower uplinks from cells to plant-edge or cloud resources for coordination, analytics, or historical storage.
