Cirrus Link Solutions

This year marks Cirrus Link’s 10th anniversary of presenting at ICC. In that time, it has consistently championed core architectural principles that are now central to modern industrial systems: decoupling devices from applications, providing a single source of truth, and enabling plug-and-play OT integration. These ideas weren’t trends — they were foundational. Join Arlen Nipper and Nathan Davenport as they reflect on a decade of progress, demonstrate how these principles are more relevant than ever, and showcase what’s new in Ignition 8.3, including tools that further simplify and strengthen MQTT-based architectures.

Leveraging IIoT Technology: Building for Tomorrow with Ignition & MQTT

MQ Telemetry Transport (MQTT) was invented in 2001 as a TCP/IP message transport designed specifically for event-based real-time SCADA. MQTT remained relatively obscure until the recent emergence of M2M/IIoT technologies in the development community at large. Now MQTT is one of the leading message transports in IIoT. This session introduces a high-level explanation of MQTT, why it was invented for SCADA, and how it can be used natively in Ignition, right now.

Technical Keynote: What's New in Ignition 8.3

Traditionally, we've always held the Technical Keynote or Development Panel on Day Three of the conference, but this year, we've got something big to discuss, so we've moved it up to Day One of our conference content schedule. It's no secret that we've been working on the newest version of Ignition for several years now, and now we're finally able to dive deep into what's coming in Ignition 8.3 and how its powerful new features can lead users to their next big breakthrough idea!

Ignition to ERP: Best Practices and Lessons Learned

Looking to leverage Ignition to seamlessly connect with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Supply Chain (D365)? This session will cover best practices and lessons learned from two perspectives: an Ignition developer, and an enterprise solutions architect. Flexware Innovation’s Ignition Team and Enterprise Solutions Team work together to merge IT with OT for true digital transformation. From this collaboration emerged a set of best practices (and lessons learned) that will be shared with the Ignition community. Presentation examples will center on D365, but the foundational architecture principles can apply to your ERP system, too.
