Adding the Cirrus Link MQTT Modules to the Ignition platform empowers companies to set up their own IIoT solution. There are four main features to an Ignition IIoT architecture.
Publish Data from The Network’s Edge:
With our IIoT, you can connect to virtually any PLC or device, and transmit and receive edge-of-network data in multiple ways
Connect Ignition to an MQTT Server:
The MQTT Engine Module gives the ability to bidirectionally communicate with an MQTT server and share that data with any client.
Publish and Subscribe to Data Through MQTT:
We have several ways to securely connect, publish, and subscribe to MQTT data including launching its own MQTT server or connecting to compatible ones.
Build and Deploy Applications:
We can build an MQTT infrastructure, design any kind of industrial application, and deploy it to any number of clients across your enterprise.
Flexible & Scalable Architectures: In the Cloud, On-Premise, or Both:
The architecture of IIoT is flexible: you can set it up in the Cloud, on a private on-premise network, or a hybrid of both. Ignition is also easily scalable so you can grow from a small system to an enterprise-wide solution with ease
