The software is an OPC-HTTP gateway that enables communication between web server pages and OPC servers (DA1 & DA2) through secure channels. By translating HTTP(S) requests into calls to the OPC server, it simplifies the integration process.
I recently had the opportunity to use a program that implements a simple OPC-HTTP gateway, and I must say, it exceeded my expectations. The main function of the program is to allow for secure interaction between web server pages and OPC servers (specifically DA1 & DA2).
What I found particularly impressive was that it can translate each HTTP(S) request into a corresponding call to an OPC server, which is incredibly useful for web-software running under Linux, as it allows data to be read from an OPC server running on a Windows machine.
The program also has the added benefit of allowing the web-software to retrieve a tag tree and select specific tags to be read. This capability proved to be invaluable, as it simplified the process of retrieving important data from the OPC server.
Overall, I highly recommend this program to anyone looking for a simple yet effective solution for their OPC-HTTP gateway needs. It's a game-changer!
