Modernize Your Industry 4.0 Architecture with UNS, ISA95, and MQTT Sparkplug
Watch the Webinar
Webinar Overview
The concept of integrating an entire organization’s value chain to the point of achieving lot-size-one (LSO) manufacturing capabilities is often the goal of modern Industry 4.0 enterprises in the manufacturing industry. There are a number of different models and approaches to creating an architecture to support this level of manufacturing flexibility, including ISA95, Unified Namespace (UNS) and MQTT Sparkplug.
In this webinar, we will define each of these approaches and discuss how they can be used in combination with each other.
Don’t miss out on learning about how you can:
Design your smart manufacturing system based on a UNS architecture along with ISA 95 standard for modeling the data objects.
Use an MQTT Broker as the centralized server for coordinating the exchange of ISA95 models implemented using Sparkplug, in a UNS architecture.
Move away from the client-server architecture model and adopt hub and spoke model to achieve lot-size-one in your manufacturing systems.
DISCLAIMER: Our perspective on implementing a Unified Namespace (UNS) has evolved over time. While this webinar originally explored an approach using MQTT Sparkplug, our thinking has been refined through practical experience and deeper industry insights. We now advocate for a more flexible and scalable method for UNS implementation that better aligns with modern industrial data architectures. To explore our latest approach, we encourage you to read our blogs, Bringing Clarity to the Unified Namespace Approach, Why Sparkplug is Not Ideal as the Central UNS Solution, and Why MQTT is Critical for Building a Unified Namespace.
