dataFEED Secure Integration Server

dataFEED Secure Integration Server

Secure and Flexible OPC UA-based Solution for IT/OT Integration

dataFEED Secure Integration Server provides a powerful OPC UA data integration layer. Based on the OPC UA aggregation server users implement flexible solutions combining the various OPC UA Servers at automation level with their associated address spaces and making the data available to IT applications via a consistent OPC UA interface. dataFEED Secure Integration Server covers the full range of OPC UA security features and enables the implementation of state-of-the-art security solutions.

The interface abstraction of dataFEED Secure Integration Server enables continuous adaptation and scaling of OPC UA-based IoT solutions throughout their entire lifecycle. Users gain a high degree of flexibility and at the same time significantly reduce integration and configuration costs.

Overview

Secure Communication

  • Support of all safety functions of OPC UA standard
  • Provide different data for different users and applications
  • Support for multiple OPC UA Endpoints (client or server), each with its own certificates
  • Filtered access, depending on IP address (White List / Black List for OPC UA Endpoints)
  • Detection of DoS (Denial of Service) attacks on OPC UA authentication

Data Aggregation

  • Aggregation of data from multiple sources in a server (aggregation of OPC UA Namespace)
  • Application access to aggregation servers, not to many individual data sources
  • Extensive and flexible OPC UA Service-based address space filtering, down to OPC UA Item level
  • Reduced configuration effort (Configuration not required individually for each OPC UA data source and each OPC UA Client)

Interface Abstraction

  • Common, stable OT interface for different IT applications
  • Adaptations in automation network transparent for IT applications
  • Easy integration of IT applications with standard OPC UA Clients in different OT environments
  • Decoupling of investment decisions in IT and OT environment

Solutions for Edge Architectures

  • Edge solution with features and benefits identical to those resulting from using central cloud platforms
  • Running local clients (e.g. for edge analytics) in parallel with cloud-based applications
  • Start with small IoT solution on cloud basis, later adaptation and expansion over time possible

  • Detailed Introduction to OPC UA
  • Tools and Demo Programs
Order the Book: From Data Access to Unified Architecture

Comprehensive Overview of Specifications and applications

The OPC Book provides an introduction to all OPC Specifications released by the OPC Foundation, from the very first to the most recent. OPC stands for Openness, Productivity and Collaboration, symbolizing the new possibilities opening up in automation technology. In addition to the fundamentals of OPC, the book discusses the implementation of OPC servers and clients, and presents application possibilities and examples. This gives readers a comprehensive overview of OPC technology and application areas.

The New OPC Generation – OPC Unified Architecture

A key focus of the book is on the OPC Unified Architecture (OPC UA). The new OPC generation allows service oriented, multivendor, and cross-platform capable data and information exchange. Among the most important subjects here are the specifications of this Windows-independent technology, the OPC UA application possibilities, the development of OPC UA products for Windows, Linux and VxWorks operating systems, and the migration from OPC Classic to OPC UA. The book provides a solid foundation of knowledge for readers to build and use products supporting OPC UA in automation.

Tools and Demo Programs on CD-ROM

The included CD-ROM contains demo versions of a variety of OPC servers and OPC tools. It also provides several demonstration programs for development, commissioning, testing, and for the simulation of OPC clients and servers. Another major part of the CD-ROM is dedicated to OPC UA introductory videos and presentations. The comprehensive content makes it easy for readers to get started with OPC Classic and OPC UA.

Contents

  • Introduction
  • Fundamentals – Classic OPC Specifications, OPC Unified Architecture, Companion Standards, OPC Compliance Testing
  • Implementation – Base Technologies and Architecture Concepts, Implementation of Classic OPC Components, Implementation of OPC UA Components
  • Application – Classic OPC Product and Application Samples, Aspects of Use of Classic OPC Products, OPC UA Product, Samples, Performance
