OPC DAY NORWAY 2024 takes place at Gardermoen, Oslo, nov 20th.

OPC UA is Open Platform Communications, Unified Architecture, a standard technology that enables secure and reliable, platform independent interoperability in industrial automation and other industries. OPC explained by OPC Foundation

OPC UA has been successfully standardizing machine connections to and from PLC, SCADA and MES level applications for over a decade. The recent development is making OPC UA successful beyond that – both towards field level communications via OPC UA Field Exchange (UA FX) and cloud services via OPC UA PubSub MQTT.

OPC DAY NORWAY 2024 is meant for users, vendors and constortia with interest to learn more about data transfer standards for multi-vendor, multi-platform, secure and reliable interoperability in industrial automation.
