A manufacturing company is deploying an IoT solution to monitor equipment on its factory floor. The sensors generate large volumes of data that need to be processed with very low latency to trigger immediate safety shutdowns. The company also needs to aggregate this data over time for predictive maintenance using machine learning. They are considering using a public cloud platform. Which architecture best meets both the low-latency and long-term analytics requirements?

Use a SaaS-based IoT platform that handles both real-time and batch processing automatically.

Process all data in the public cloud to ensure a single source of truth and simplify management.

Use edge computing for real-time safety processing and send aggregated data to the public cloud for ML analytics.

Use a private cloud on-premises for all processing to avoid latency and keep data on-site.
