How to Evaluate Interoperability for IoT

Successfully connecting devices from different suppliers has long been the goal in industry—and it’s imperative for the Internet of Things. Here are some key interoperability aspects to seek out to ease the integration process.

This graphic shows the companies participating in the OPC UA over TSN initiative.

Time Sensitive Networking Gathers Steam

From standards development collaboration between the Industrial Internet Consortium and Avnu Alliance to deployment of OPC UA, Time Sensitive Networking is quickly moving from technological possibility to the industrial networking option of the very near future.

The familiar automation pyramid is changing to an automation pillar to better reflect the changing locations of control systems and the ability to share data at all levels rather than sequentially from one layer to the next.

Automation Networks: From Pyramid to Pillar

As automation technologies advance with cloud and edge computing, system and device location on the network can, in some cases, become optional. Critical to this development will be the greater adoption of standard Ethernet and the use of Time Sensitive Networking to maintain expected levels of control.
