Behind Ignition’s success is a community of integrators who continue to push the limits of its capabilities every day. After years of working with Ignition, many integrators have gone beyond simply deploying solutions and created powerful reusable frameworks and tools to solve recurring industrial challenges.
Now, we’re thrilled to introduce a new initiative that puts a spotlight on those innovations called Integrator Solutions: a new category within the Ignition Technology Ecosystem we are adding later this year that will give Gold and Premier Integrators a way to showcase their solutions to the Ignition community.
Making Internal Solutions Publicly Available
As more organizations have adopted Ignition, its use cases have grown and become more complex. Many of our top integrators have developed internal solutions that streamline development, reduce time to deployment, and help teams deliver value faster. Until now, these innovations have largely remained in-house and out of reach for everyone except the integrators and their clients. Integrator Solutions changes that.
This new program highlights Ignition projects and tools that help integrators and end users build faster, reduce costs, and get started with confidence. These solutions are fully built, production-ready resources that anyone in the Ignition community can implement in their own systems.
Whether you’re migrating from a different supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) platform, launching a new human-machine interface (HMI) build, or integrating enterprise systems, these solutions can help you reach your goal faster.
What Qualifies As An Integrator Solution?
Integrator Solutions must meet specific criteria to be included in the program. For example, each solution must:
- Be created by a Gold or Premier Certified Integrator.
- Help reduce implementation time or cost for Ignition projects.
- Be sold and supported by the integrator who developed it.
- Be fully documented and ready for wide distribution within the Ignition community.
Integrator Solutions generally fall into two categories: Projects and Tools.
Ignition Projects are built in Ignition and help accelerate new Ignition development. A project can be a complete ready-built application, a framework, building blocks, or sets of templates.
Ignition Tools are tools written inside or outside of Ignition that aid in converting projects to Ignition or building projects quickly. For example, a complete conversion tool to go from another SCADA package to Ignition, an AI engine that helps convert or build Ignition projects, or a tool that migrates existing tags or data to Ignition (database, QuestDB, etc.).
The Integrator Solutions Program does not include services, SaaS products, or standalone modules, which remain part of the broader Technology Ecosystem Program or Module Showcase.
The First Five Integrator Solutions Are Coming Soon
We’re launching the Integrator Solutions program with five powerful, field-tested solutions from some of our leading integrators:
- Flexware Innovation’s SparkSCADA and SparkMES: Modular frameworks that streamline SCADA and MES development in Ignition.
- Corso Systems’ Conversion Utility: A robust migration tool that converts systems like Wonderware, iFix, FactoryTalk, and WinCC to Ignition. It can also perform Vision-to-Perspective conversions.
- Avadine’s iPOC: A turnkey replacement for XSPOC built entirely in Ignition for optimizing lift systems in oil and gas operations.
- BW Design Group’s AI Perspective Builder: A cutting-edge chatbot tool that lets you build Perspective projects using natural language prompts.
- Vertech Solar and BESS project: A state-of-the-art project that enables you to visualize KPIs, optimize generation, and maintain unified control across multiple energy assets.
These Integrator Solutions are outstanding examples of the creativity, expertise, and innovation of our integrator community, and they’re just the beginning.
Become A Part Of The Solution
The upcoming Integrator Solutions Program enables Inductive Automation to support and celebrate innovation across our entire integrator ecosystem, and it gives integrators the opportunity to share their best work with the Ignition community. End users and integrators now have a new option to find the perfect tool for their use case and create Ignition solutions faster, without sacrificing adaptability and flexibility.
If you are a Gold or Premier Integrator with a solution you'd like us to consider adding to the program, you can click here and submit your solution. You’ll also find documentation requirements, pricing expectations, and contact information for the IA team.
