DataHub OPC Gateway

Future-proof your industrial systems:

Connect any number of UA and DA servers and clients.
Maintain the OPC UA data model, while other gateways flatten it.
Automatically discover all the points from the server.
Always have the most current data value and quality.
Prevent slow or non-responsive servers from slowing down other connections.

Leverage Legacy Investments

With so many OPC UA-enabled products coming on the market, this is how you can ensure that all of your OPC DA investments maintain their value.

DataHub Logger

Log OPC or Modbus data to a database, also query the database.

Write data from OPC servers into any ODBC compliant database, such as Microsoft SQL Server, MySQL, PostgreSQL, DB2, and more.
Use existing tables, or create new ones fully customized to meet your needs.

Query any database and send data back to OPC for production schedules, recipes, process setpoints, and more.

Use Cases

Connect to any SQL database running on the same computer as the Datahub, and log your OPC data to any new or existing table.
Log your OPC data to any database that is visible on the network. The DataHub’s built-in Store and Forward mechanism stores the data in memory whenever the database is unavailable and forwards it in time-sequential order when the connection is restored.
Query your database and send the results back to your OPC server. This is useful for supervisory control, changing set points, sending recipes, and more.

DataHub OPC Bridge

Lets you connect OPC servers, so that a change in one piece of equipment can be communicated directly to another.

Connect OPC servers to each other and let them exchange data.
Consolidate data from other systems and bridge to OPC servers.
Versions for both OPC UA and OPC DA (Classic).
Connect multiple servers and clients in a single, unified data set.
Perform transformations on the data (e.g. convert degrees F to C).
Use with tunnelling for networked bridging.

Enhanced Bridging

You can scale or modify your data as it passes through the DataHub, and define more complex relationships with the built-in Scripting language. Connect several OPC servers and clients to create a common data set, and the multi-threaded interface means that a slow or non-responsive server will not slow down any other connections.
