Industrial data, AI and operations, from people who have run plants.

From LinkedIn

## Latest From Fuuz

Oct 29, 2026AI has been advancing fast, but most of it still hasn't reached the plant floor.

The Fuuz MCP Driver connects large language models like Claude directly to your manufacturing data, so your team can query and build against it using plain language instead of writing custom code.

Ask it to pull quality data from the last 48 hours or generate a maintenance schedule from historical failure data, and it responds instantly. That means building apps 5 to 7 times faster, and running operational analysis up to 50 times faster.

Oct 27, 2026Most industrial software gets built for SAP first, with everything else treated as an afterthought.

That's a real gap for accounts running Infor, Oracle, or JD Edwards. It gets worse inside multi-entity organizations, where different divisions ended up on different ERPs over the years, each one needing its own integration built and maintained separately.

Fuuz connects natively to SAP, Infor, Oracle, and QAD, sitting beneath whichever ERP is already in place. Plant-floor systems plug into the same operational layer across all divisions, without a separate integration project for each.

Oct 26, 2026This month’s Fuuz release speeds up OPC UA connections, simplifies switching between tenants, and makes Device Gateway logging more reliable.

Here’s what’s new:

→ Faster OPC UA connections: the OPC UA Client driver now uses one session per device instead of one per subscription, so devices with hundreds or thousands of subscriptions start much faster, and servers that cap their session count, like Rockwell Logix and Siemens S7, no longer silently drop subscriptions (requires Device Gateway 2026.8.0 or later)

→ Redesigned tenant switcher: search both tenants and roles, go straight into a tenant with one click, and middle-click any tenant or role to open it in a new tab

→ Self-managing Device Gateway logs: files rotate at 10 MB, and a new size cap removes the oldest logs automatically to keep disk usage in check

Faster connections and less housekeeping mean your team spends more time running the plant and less time managing the software behind it.

Oct 22, 2026Fuuz is heading to Chicago for the 2nd annual MWorX US on October 26-27, hosted by Global Business Research (GBR).

Come meet the team to talk about connecting your plant floor to the rest of the business, from MES and maintenance management to industrial AI, all on one platform.

We’re looking forward to two busy days with our peers in manufacturing!

Oct 20, 2026SAP ECC mainstream support ends December 31, 2027, and most migrations take 18 to 36 months to complete.

That means teams are already deciding where the biggest risk is likely to show up.

Oct 15, 2026SAP's BTP Integration Suite is billed as low-code, but connecting a new piece of plant-floor equipment through it still tends to require a developer writing custom ABAP for that specific connection.

That means every additional machine, sensor, or system added to the floor needs its own development work rather than a configuration change, so integration costs keep scaling with how much equipment gets connected instead of dropping off after setup.

Fuuz's visual flow builder handles those connections directly, so adding equipment to the floor doesn't mean adding a developer to the project.
