We host and manage your OPCUA Servers in the Cloud.

Exchanging data with the Cloud has never been easier - or more familiar. Connect from any OPC client to a secure, OPC server in the Cloud - technologies you understand and trust. No more proprietary IOT solutions, different vendor “gateways” or Cloud IOT packages. Save time and cost by building your SCADA and manufacturing applications with solutions you already know.

We provide fully managed, secure, OPCUA servers hosted in Amazon's AWS, Microsoft's Azure, Google Cloud, VMWare vSphere, and many other Cloud providers. You have your own OPCUA server that you can read and write just as if you had installed it on your local system but it's accessible worldwide. All transfers are encrypted, and only clients you choose can get access to the data. It's fully managed and secure, we monitor for problems and are here to answer any questions.

If you'd rather host and manage your own server, or need to build Cloud-based applications, MIStudio OPCUA product provides that capability.

Contact us for more details.

Once we've provisioned your server you will be given you unique host name, for example aws-opc.awsdeploy.ergotech.com . We have a number of domains to choose from, or we can use your domain if your IT department allows it. For example, you could choose, yourcompany.opcuacloud.com, yourcompany.opcuacloudserver.com, yourcompany.securemanufacturing.cloud or one of many others.

Now the server works the same way as any other server. You can used the discovery service to find the urls for the server:

You can then connect to the server and browse the available tags just as you would if the server were on your local system.

If you need to upload your certificate to the server, you can use the management interface. This will ask you for a username and password that was provided as part of your service setup.

No server configuration is required. Whenever you request a tag from an OPC Client that doesn't already exist, that tag will automatically be created in the OPC Server and will be available after that for other clients to browse and subscribe.

Pricing
You pay a low, fixed monthly cost depending on your needs. Pricing below is for OPCUA servers hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS). Please contact us for pricing for other platforms. You can cancel the service within the first 30 days for a full refund.

Tier 1 - Single OPCUA Server
A single OPCUA server deployed to the Cloud. A simple, secure, and highly reliable alternative to hosting in your office or data center. Worldwide access for any OPCUA client you authorize.
$95/month for the first 1000 points with 100GB data transfer (that's about 40kB/second or 400 floating point updates per second).
$75/month for each subsequent 1000 points each with another 100GB data transfer allocation

Higher tiers add server persistence and redundancy for high availability.

Tier 2 - Server Persistence
Adds Database Support to the Server with easy-to-configure OPC scenarios:

Historian Saves timestamped historical data. You decide which tags to store in the database and when to store the data. Chart them in the Cloud or on your desktop, or use the data for analytics and AI.
Alarms Cloud-based Fault Detection. Easily configure tags to generate alarms based on flexible conditions or on scripts. Alarms are automatically stored to the database. Send e-mails or SMSs or create alarm views directly from the alarm database. Generate Pareto charts or use for other Cloud-basd analytics.
The server also stores the server configuration and a snapshot of the current values to a database and restores from the database if the server is restarted.
Additional $75/month for a single database instance each 1000 data points (Pricing example: 1000 data point server with persistence costs $170/month)
Additional $250/month for a redundant database for each 1000 data points. A primary/backup database with hot-failover to different data centers (AZ). Extra assurance in case one data center is lost.(Pricing example: 1000 data point server with redundant persistence costs $345/month)

Tier 3 - High Availability
A redundant OPC Server in a different data center (AZ). Provides hot-failover between two OPCUA servers that are running in different data centers. This option includes redundant persistence. Expect 99.999% uptime
$1700/month for the first 1000 points with 100GB data transfer (that's about 40kB/second or 400 floating point updates per second).
$400/month for each subsequent 1000 points each with another 100GB data transfer allocation
