SparkPlug B Host reduces SCADA integration time by importing tags from “edge of network” devices and data sources automatically. This, in combination with the MQTT driver, allows users to harness the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) by connecting with end devices without much knowledge of how they work. In an industrial context, field devices publish data such as temperature, pressure, flow and on/off status. A broker then handles this data and makes the information available to data consumers (i.e., subscribers). Both the Sparkplug B Host and MQTT driver are standard in every VTScada license, including VTScadaLight.
