What Should You Consider When Choosing a CIP Security (D)TLS Library?
The (D)TLS library is a complex piece of software that serves as one of the core components in CIP Security. Discover what you need to know to choose the right library for your product.
What is CIP Security for EtherNet/IP?
Companies with plans to implement IIoT communications are concerned that EtherNet/IP may not be secure from external, unauthorized entities. To address these concerns, ODVA developed CIP Security for EtherNet/IP.
PROFINET 101
PROFINET– what do you really know about it? Perhaps just that it’s a protocol– maybe even that it’s a standard Ethernet protocol. Let’s clear up any questions or uncertainties you have about what PROFINET is and why it has one of the largest installed bases of any Industrial Ethernet protocols.
Get the Best of Both Worlds: Integrating IIoT with Legacy MFG Systems
As industrial manufacturing companies looking for solutions knew that first and foremost, they needed greater visibility into their operations– especially real-time visibility. Instead of relying on unsatisfactory communications between machines and applications, they turned to integrating IIoT with their legacy systems.
Increase the Speed and Security of Your IIoT Data with “The Fog”
With more sensors now existing on the planet than people, companies are looking for new ways to reduce latency and increase security in their IIoT data. The answer they’re finding? The “fog.”
The Key to Unlocking Your IIoT Data
It seems that IIoT is disrupting the industrial sector in the best way by guaranteeing these improvements, but the fact is that most companies are not correctly or effectively implementing IIoT. Because IIoT gathers huge amounts of quantitative, largely unstructured data through sensors, your current analytics system is likely to be overwhelmed. Luckily, you just need one key to unlock the treasures that IIoT data has to offer: artificial intelligence (AI).
What Is IIoT?
IIoT (Industrial Internet of Things) is how we connect our machines to an infrastructure instead of connecting machines to applications. IIoT has helped manufacturers make such amazing strides in increasing quality control, traceability, sustainability and overall efficiency that it’s even been called our next Industrial Revolution.
DeviceNet Explained
By Glenn Beal, Senior Account Executive, Network Connectivity & Intelligent Manufacturing DeviceNet has been around since the late 1990s and is still widely used in many manufacturing facilities around the world. It’s successor, EtherNet/IP, has long since...
What is Network Connectivity?
Network connectivity is accessing, collecting, sharing and utilizing data across your enterprise. It also means communicating with more of your enterprise.
EtherNet/IP Implementors Workshop: Vendor Community Working Toward Better EtherNet/IP Experience
As the Annual ODVA Industry Conference approaches, I’m preparing presentations for the EtherNet/IP Implementors Workshop which will be held in conjunction with the conference. During my presentation work, I was struck by a question that never seems to be well answered: What is the Implementors Workshop and who should attend the meetings?
