Why IIoT Matters More Than Ever
Industrial companies are now generating more operational data than at any other time in history. With sensors on every asset, wireless networks connecting remote sites, and smart devices feeding diagnostics every second, it’s no longer a question of data availability, it’s a question of data usability.
The challenge most manufacturers, energy producers, and utilities face today isn’t collecting IIoT data, it’s integrating it. Legacy SCADA systems operate in silos. New sensors lack context. Operators struggle to turn raw data into actionable insights.
This is where AVEVA System Platform becomes the foundation of connected industrial operations. It offers a unified industrial architecture that integrates IIoT data with control systems, MES, ERP, and the cloud, securely and at scale.
What Is IIoT Integration with AVEVA System Platform?
IIoT (Industrial Internet of Things) integration connects smart field devices, sensors, and gateways to enterprise systems so organizations can continuously monitor equipment, detect anomalies early, and optimize performance.
AVEVA System Platform enables IIoT integration using:
OPC UA connectivity to unify PLCs, sensors, and edge devices
MQTT to connect lightweight IIoT devices over low-bandwidth networks
REST APIs for enterprise-level integration with IT/business systems
AVEVA Edge & Insight to bring visualization and analytics to remote assets
Unlike traditional SCADA, System Platform adds context to data by organizing it into reusable asset models, enabling true digital transformation.
Real-World IIoT Architecture with AVEVA System Platform
Here’s how a smart connected system comes together:
Layer | Technology Integration | Purpose |
Sensors + IIoT Devices | MQTT, wireless sensors, gateways | Capture asset health + process data |
Edge Control | PLCs, RTUs, AVEVA Edge | Local logic + fast response |
Industrial Platform | AVEVA System Platform | Unified model + SCADA visualization |
Data Processing | AVEVA Historian + Insight | Store + analyze real-time data |
Enterprise Integration | ERP, MES, Cloud | Business reporting + decision-making |
With this architecture, organizations get full asset visibility from edge to enterprise.
