SPS IPC Drives 2018: Product innovations at a glance
On the communication side, it is especially the support of new protocols that characterizes the update. With MQTT, VBASE now supports one of the most important IOT and M2M protocols for sending messages via the Internet. The protocol offers real push communication and is scalable to several thousand clients. The MQTT broker can be freely selected in VBASE, and VISAM GmbH also offers a cloud service under VBASE.cloud.
The integration of OPC UA is another step towards greater vendor independence. The platform-independent protocol promises secure and reliable communication from the sensor to the ERP system. VBASE 11.5 can perform both as an OPC UA server and as a client. Thanks to the additional support of the BACnet protocol, large building automation projects can now be implemented even more easily and versatilely with VBASE 11.5.
