IoT and the cloud have much more to offer than consumer-grade conveniences. A fusion of IoT and cloud technologies has specific applications in the industrial automation sector, creating the Industrial IoT (IIoT). Unquestionably, cloud-based supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) software provides an ideal gateway to deliver practical and actionable IIoT information to those who need it.
A cloud-based SCADA system can act as a centralized pivot point for harvesting IIoT information from industrial automation systems. This white paper details how such a system harnesses all the performance and capabilities of today's powerful Internet applications, with enough flexibility to access almost any vintage of data source.
