Rockwell Automation Offers Solutions for Control Software Optimization with Embedded Edge Compute Modules

The Embedded Edge Compute Module builds on Rockwell Automation’s recent history of enabling PC or compute functionality with the power of Logix. This Edge solution provides key scalability and remote support functions to today’s workforce. At first release, the Embedded Edge Compute enables FactoryTalk Optix software and provides a communication path to REST API, OPC UA and MQTT to meet the needs of a variety of applications.
 
Embedded Edge Compute Modules are one of the solutions in the new FactoryTalk Optix portfolio. The FactoryTalk Optix portfolio allows users to choose their own technology mix, where for the first time, Rockwell Automation customers can use visualization software to design HMI applications that can natively work with both Rockwell Automation and third-party controllers and display a choice of hardware from either Rockwell Automation or a third-party. Users can connect to a variety of third-party software, devices or systems using software designed for interoperability and full OPC UA support. Users also only pay for the features they need with runtime licensing that is based on the capabilities in their application.
