Overview

Ignition Edge IIoT by Inductive Automation is designed to enhance device connections and secure data transmission at the edge of your network. It serves as a remote connection hub, working seamlessly with the standard Ignition platform to bridge device data between remote sites and the plant floor. By publishing data to an MQTT server or other endpoints, Ignition Edge IIoT ensures efficient data flow and system management.
