IIoT Database Connector

The OAS Database Connector product facilitates data transfer from various databases, including SQL Server, Oracle, MySQL, PostgreSQL, and SQLite, to all OAS data sources. If you need a Modbus database connector, SQL database connector, Allen Bradley database connector, or MQTT database connector, OAS has you covered. You can also connect with Siemens controllers, OPC UA, OPC DA, and Sparkplug B, all from one platform.

Introducing Database Tags

Key Features & Benefits

Wide DB Support

Connect to SQL Server, Oracle, Access, SQL Azure, PostgreSQL, Cassandra, MongoDB, MariaDB, SQLite, MySQL, Amazon Aurora, Amazon RDS, and Google Firebase. The OAS database connectors ensure your data gets to PLCs and DCS systems with full confirmation that everything was transferred successfully.

Integrate Data with Other Sources

With support for Modbus, OPC UA, OPC DA, MQTT, Sparkplug B, and cloud servers like Azure IoT, AWS IoT Core, and Kafka, you can share data across all systems using the same platform. The OPC database connector, IIoT database connector, and Siemens database connector are all built in.

Customizable Import Behavior

You choose how and when data transfers happen. It can be continuous, triggered by an event, or run at specific times. You can even control it with other tag values or calculations.

Industry 4.0 Targets

You can send data to various destinations including Modbus, Allen Bradley PLCs, Siemens S7 Controllers, OPC UA, OPC DA, MQTT, Sparkplug B, MTConnect, AWS IoT Core, Kafka, .NET, REST Clients, and other Databases.

Controller Handshaking

Each transaction can be initiated using data from a PLC (Programmable Logic Controller), and full confirmation feedback will be provided to verify the values being set.

Database Tags for Visualization

Use database tags to monitor live data from your database. You can set up visualization, alarms, trending, and calculations. You can also write back to your database when using the OAS Data Historian.

Dynamic Queries

The comprehensive calculation engine integrates diverse data sources to determine which records should be processed.


Edge Computing

OAS is an on-premise edge solution that employs first-in, first-out (FIFO) processing, guaranteeing complete delivery for each record that is processed before confirmation is sent.


Networking

Data transfer can be extended to remote databases and OAS Engines for peer-to-peer data exchange. The database connector makes this kind of distributed setup easy to manage.

Common Use Cases

Batch Sequencing

Pull setpoints and limits from a database for each step in a batch process. The controller lets OAS know when it's ready for the next step, and OAS grabs the right record, sends it over, and confirms the values match.

Order Processing

Use controller values to filter your database and grab data for specific order numbers or batches. You can generate a WHERE filter dynamically using calculation tags, which helps automate the process.

Database User Interface

Create Human Machine Interfaces (HMIs) for data from a database using the cross-platform UIEngine without any coding required. Together with the Data Historian product values can also be updated in the database. The UIEngine features an extensive library of components that allow for drag-and-drop design, along with integrated support for Web Trend and Web Alarm products.
