Connect

Discovery and governed access for every system on the plant floor.

Find every tag and device across your PLCs, SCADA, historians, and OEM systems — and govern who can see and use them, with access scope built in — all on the same governed platform that runs your operations.

Discovery

Find the right tag — and know you can use it.

Engineers search the normalized tag catalog in plain language and structured filters. Every result carries its access scope and vendor restrictions, so use is gated before a connection can be made.

Natural-language + structured search

Query by system type, protocol, area, tag type, vendor, update frequency, access scope, and availability — with relevance scoring and match explanations.

Access-gated use

Open access proceeds; restricted requires acknowledgment; expired vendor credentials are blocked with alternatives suggested; pending is queued for review — before any connection request is created.

Recommendations

“You may also like” surfaces related tags — same system/different line, same vendor/different protocol — to speed integration design.

Request to connect

An approved request hands off directly into operational Connect, creating a triage item with a fulfillment-time estimate.

At scale

Built for high-throughput, plant-wide integration.

Onboard tens of thousands of tags a year, manage a deep asset hierarchy, and plan capacity years ahead — without losing the audit trail.

Bulk onboarding

Batch device and tag intake with statistical spot-check validation instead of individual verification, plus throughput metrics by operator, day, week, and month.

Asset hierarchy

An eight-level model — Enterprise → Site → Plant → Area → Line → Cell → Device → Tag — so every data point has a precise, navigable home.

Bulk reconfiguration

Move or remap entire device groups or partial selections with auto-suggested destinations and full connection-test confirmation recorded to the audit trail.

Capacity planning

Utilization heat maps, projected growth overlays, and consolidation opportunities — with alerts for thresholds and (on the roadmap) anomaly excursions.

Long-term governance

Governance that lasts as long as the systems do.

  • Multi-year connection lifecycle tracking
  • Credential-expiry alerts and access-review triggers
  • Engineer governance across the asset hierarchy
  • Category-conditional access (contractor vs. owner vs. OEM)

Turn your control stack into a discoverable, governed network.
