IIoT Platforms vs OPC Servers – Comparing Modern and Legacy Factories
The time to invest in a modern IIoT platform is now. Legacy OPC Server technology can no longer meet the demands of the data-driven factory as use cases increase in complexity. Watch our webinar replay as we break down modern and legacy factory technologies and explain how IIoT platforms are the backbone for smart manufacturing applications.
Watch our webinar replay to understand the difference between IIoT Platforms and OPC Servers, and why data-driven factories are investing in a unified data layer to enable smart manufacturing use cases.
Data-driven factory use cases are driving the demand for quick and easy access to contextualized data for the people, applications and systems that need it to improve operations at scale. The differences between modern IIoT Platforms and legacy OPC Server solutions are clear – this webinar does a deep-dive into these often compared but very different technologies and explain why a unified IIoT data layer must be the foundation for data-driven factories.
Breaking down the legacy factory automation stack
Understand what a legacy factory automation stack looks like, which systems are still critical, and how companies are trying to enable smart manufacturing with piecemeal solutions.
How Industrial IoT enables data-driven factories
Learn about the importance of an IIoT platform to create a unified data layer that bridges the data gap between legacy factory systems and factory, cloud and enterprise applications.
Customer deployments and use cases
We’ll share real-world stories of how customers have deployed a flexible Industrial IoT platform on top of their factory automation systems to enable data-driven operations.
Meet The Speakers
Marc Dekker and Dave McMorran bring many years of manufacturing expertise to another informative webinar – IIoT Platforms vs OPC Servers – Comparing Modern and Legacy Factories. Building on the concept behind the SCADA Systems vs Industrial IoT Platforms webinar, they look at the legacy factory automation stack and compare the value of OPC Servers compared to IIoT Platforms to create a modern, data-driven factory.
