Currently, companies such as <strong>Visa, Lego, Electronic Arts, Airbus or NASA<\/strong> use it as a database for analytics projects. <\/p>\n<p>The <strong>industrial and infrastructure environments<\/strong> are not immune to these initiatives of analytics and massive data study, therefore, in order to deploy the full power of InfluxDB, it is required to be able to insert all the data generated in an installation. That&#8217;s where OPC Router comes in. <\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/logitek.es\/opc_router\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">OPC Router<\/a><\/strong> incorporates a <strong>specific Plug-in for InfluxDB databases.<\/strong> In this way, all the information from the different management systems of the installation <strong> (SCADAs, ERPs, IoT platforms,\u2026)<\/strong> or directly from the process control can be inserted into this database. In this way, OPC Router allows <strong>deploying BigData projects<\/strong> where the entire data of the installation can be studied with continuous insertions in real time. <\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-3008\" src=\"https:\/\/becolve.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/unnamed-file.ICO-1024x502.png\" alt=\"OPC ROUTER BIG DATA AND IOT\" width=\"1024\" height=\"502\"><\/p>\n<p>The <strong>process to insert values in OPC Router<\/strong> is the same as in the other Plug-ins, <strong>create the InfluxDB object instance<\/strong>, create the information flow where the communication is defined and send it to Runtime.
