OPC Unified Architecture (OPC-UA) is an industrial communication protocol with robust security features and a complex information architecture that asset maintainers can leverage to model and store their data.
The OPC-UA protocol adapter is a Predix Edge application that allows you to communicate with your OPC-UA server. The following diagram shows a simple use case where data from an OPC-UA server is retrieved by the OPC-UA adapter and finally send to the Predix cloud.Figure 1. OPC-UA Sample Use Case
