What is OPC UA?
OPC UA (Unified Architecture) is the modern open standard for industrial data exchange. It replaces the older OPC Classic and is increasingly used in smart buildings as well as manufacturing.
OPC UA is a platform-independent, service-oriented protocol designed for secure industrial data exchange. It defines not just transport, but a rich object model — assets, devices, points — that makes integration far less brittle than Modbus or BACnet alone.
OPC UA is dominant in modern manufacturing and process industries, and increasingly common in commercial buildings where the BMS has been modernised or where building and process data are converging.
FrostLogic Explore reads OPC UA natively, including subscriptions to value-change events. Authentication and encryption are handled per the OPC UA security profile your site uses.
