OPC Unified Architecture
(重定向自OPC UA)
OPC Unified Architecture (OPC UA) is an industrial M2M communication protocol for interoperability developed by the OPC Foundation. It is the successor to Open Platform Communications (OPC). Although developed by the same organization, OPC UA differs significantly from its predecessor. The Foundation's goal for this project was to provide a path forward from the original OPC communications model (namely the Microsoft Windows only process exchange COM/DCOM) to a cross-platform service-oriented architecture (SOA) for process control, while enhancing security and providing an information model.
