Ben Hutcheson commented on PLC4X-315:
-------------------------------------
[~JeremyTheocharis] I'll have too get my head around how you're interfacing to
connectors and what you need.
The Kafka connector works as both a source and sink connector, however it
doesn't support browsing or discovery. The discovery (Finding
devices/endpoint) API is fairly new and only a few protocols support it.
[~cdutz] I don't believe we have a browsing API (Getting a list of tags from
the device) in PLC4X? It would be interesting to implement though.

> Hi everyone!
> My name is Jeremy and I am the lead developer of the United Manufacturing Hub.
> The United Manufacturing Hub is an open-source industrial IoT and
> manufacturing application platform enabling users to connect, store, and
> access all relevant data sources in industrial manufacturing sites and build
> user-centric dashboards and applications.
> It would be really great if we could make a connection between PLC4X and the
> United Manufacturing Hub, e.g., in form of a configurable microservice that
> automatically takes data from various PLCs and pushes them into a MQTT
> broker. The United Manufacturing Hub (incl. Node-RED, Grafana, timescaleDB,
> VerneMQ) then provides the infrastructure and data models to contextualize
> the data and enable use-cases like OEE, Performance Management, Machine to
> Machine Communication, Digital Shadow, etc. Furthermore, the United
> Manufacturing Hub allows extracting data from other data sources as well like
> sensors, barcodereader or cameras.
> Further information can be found here:
> * [https://docs.umh.app/docs/]
> * [https://github.com/united-manufacturing-hub/united-manufacturing-hub]
> Looking forward to discussing how we can combine both open-source projects
> the most effective way.
> Regards,
> Jeremy
