Ignition Edge: Capacità di Trasformazione Digitale (Italian)

Grazie alla struttura aperta e distribuita della piattaforma Ignition e di Ignition Edge, è possibile creare architetture estese in grado di migliorare l'efficienza di interi sistemi. Ignition, grazie alla sua infinita scalabilità e alle potenzialità di Ignition Edge, permette di integrare tutti i dispositivi di campo e funge da piattaforma per la realizzazione di reti industriali ad alta efficienza. Le capacità architetturali e la modellazione dei dati attraverso l'utilizzo di DataOps, già a livello di dispositivi Edge, sono elementi che consentono la trasformazione digitale sfruttando appieno le potenzialità del Cloud, della moderna comunicazione e delle tecniche di elaborazione dati.

Supporting Worldwide Digital Transformation with Ignition in the Cloud

Ignition is capable of more than just SCADA; it can support digital transformation by offering the possibility to create parametric services in a secure, scalable, and cost-effective way. HTC uses Perspective, the WebDev Module, and REST APIs on a cloud platform to help their international customers complete their digital transformation journeys. In this session, HTC will illustrate the architecture they use and their customers' results by using a scalable, secure, mobile, geographically distributed system that enables services like Big Data and Artificial Intelligence. In addition, Ignition back-end and front-end architectures, gateway networks, high availability, Ignition Edge, and MQTT will be addressed in this session.

Ignition Server Sizing and Architecture Guide

This guide is intended to provide some tips to help you determine the correct architecture depending on your requirements. It is important to note that any architecture that you come up with needs to be fully tested and verified. Throughout that process you can observe the performance characteristics of the server in order to make any necessary adjustments to the architecture. There is no guarantee on performance since it is based on your design choices.
