Abstract: The present invention relates to a network of smart Nodes for a mesh distributed network adaptable to industrial applications, each node allowing, by means of GCOM communication middleware, peer-to-peer bidirectional communication with other nodes or with a central Big Data Management platform allowing the acquisition, management and storage of a data lake or with a public or private cloud, each node comprising a computer hardware architecture, said architecture running under an operating system and a software stack using an object-oriented language, the network being characterized in that one or more nodes are deployed at different aggregation levels including at least one off the plant site, at least one close to the plant's process automatons, at least one in the control room and at least one per cloud, the execution of said software stack on the computer hardware architecture implements a set of functionalities, internal communication within the mesh and external communication with other systems being mes
