Industrial-strength MQTT with Sparkplug B PostedJanuary 20, 2021 Are you a system integrator, developer, engineer, or manager wondering if MQTT could help with your industrial internet of things (IIoT) application? If so, this white paper can give you some answers. It explains the fundamentals of the protocol, demonstrates how the Sparkplug B specification adapts MQTT to industrial applications, and shows you how to establish and scale MQTT networks using industrial edge computing.This approach creates a secure foundation for IIoT networks that scale up smoothly and operate reliably in support of mission-critical applications.Download: https://www.opto22.com/support/resources-tools/documents/2357-white-paper-industrial-strength-mqtt-sparkpl Posted byOPTO 22 Read More
Building Industrial IoT from Edge to Cloud PostedAugust 19, 2020 Sharing process data has long been a goal of industrial automation, but traditional operational technology (OT) architectures are poor at scaling, priced prohibitively, and demand complex configuration and support. So how can we achieve the new, more ambitious goals of the industrial internet of things (IIoT)?Read this white paper to see how next-generation distributed I/O and control are opening new possibilities for connected infrastructure.

I/O for the IIoT PostedApril 22, 2020 In an era of increasing connectivity and technical capabilities, it seems like simple ideas should be simple to achieve. But industrial internet of things projects, even simple ones, are still expensive, demand special skills, and involve many steps. This white paper introduces edge I/O, a new kind of product that simplifies IIoT applications. Opto 22's groov RIO is an example of an edge I/O product. Posted byOPTO 22 Read More
