Moxa MX-AOPC UA Server for big data management

Moxa has released the MX-AOPC UA Server, an automation software solution that helps users facilitate efficient yet seamless SCADA device data management. It is the company’s first OPC UA software product that addresses big data challenges related to the industrial Internet of Things.

The product is claimed to be the first OPC UA server for industrial automation that supports both push and pull communication. Using the server, industry engineers can enjoy a cohesive and secure data exchange and control framework that enables instant alarms, real-time updates and efficient logging of historical data, allowing for both timely risk prevention and maintenance responses.

The product features Moxa’s Active Tag technology and supports the Modbus protocol for polling data. Engineers can seamlessly connect edge devices to a SCADA system and the Active Tag technology minimises data size. Other features include one-click active tag creation and simple viewing of tag values and UA server status.

The server is suitable for a variety of industrial automation applications that need to optimise data management, maximise uptime, reduce maintenance costs and increase safety.
