PLC to Cloud Integration

PLC-to-cloud integration sends selected operational data from a programmable logic controller to a cloud service or application for monitoring, analysis, reporting or remote workflows.

TYPICAL ARCHITECTURE

Keep operational data purposeful and protected

  1. PLC reads process inputs and controls equipment
  2. An approved gateway or edge layer reads selected PLC tags
  3. The edge layer validates, buffers and securely transmits telemetry
  4. A cloud service stores, visualises or distributes the data

COMMON QUESTIONS

Frequently asked questions

What is PLC to Cloud Integration?

PLC-to-cloud integration sends selected operational data from a programmable logic controller to a cloud service or application for monitoring, analysis, reporting or remote workflows.

What is the typical architecture?

PLC reads process inputs and controls equipment. An approved gateway or edge layer reads selected PLC tags. The edge layer validates, buffers and securely transmits telemetry. A cloud service stores, visualises or distributes the data.

What should be planned first?

Use a network boundary and access model appropriate to the operational environment.
