Integration server merges data from multiple sources
The dataFEED Secure Integration Server is used at the interface of IT and automation networks and enables data from several sources to be combined in one server. The OPC UA interoperability standard is used on both the client and server side; the collected data can be freely configured and aggregated in an OPC UA namespace. The access of client applications to the aggregated data is controlled by access rights. Different applications can work with their own certificates or access rights. dataFEED Secure Integration Server also offers additional security features such as automatic detection of DoS (Denial of Service) attacks or access filtering based on configurable IP addresses.
Users benefit from increased security and efficient configuration of their IoT solutions. This applies in particular when several applications in more complex IoT solutions access identical data sources and when changes in the system or IT are to be expected over the service life of the system.
“In IoT solutions, the right architecture for IT/OT integration is increasingly becoming a strategic question,” says Andreas Röck, Product Manager IoT. “OPC UA has become the standard for many vendors in both devices and IT applications. With dataFEED Secure Integration Server we allow end users to design the interface between IT and OT securely and efficiently in such an environment and to react flexibly to short innovation cycles in IT”.
dataFEED Secure Integration Server is not only designed for end users. Machine and plant manufacturers can thus provide a standardized interface for plants or plant components that can be easily integrated in the direction of IT.
The Secure Integration Server is already in productive use with the first pilot customers and is commercially available with immediate effect. Customers can choose between different price models (purchase model or rental model).
