Data Aggregation
Consistent data via open standards
● OPC-UA - a communication protocol for industrial automation
○ Eclipse Milo is a Java implementation of OPC-UA stack,
including client and server
● MQTT - general purpose messaging protocol for IoT
○ Eclipse Paho provides MQTT client libraries (Java, C/C++,
JavaScript, Python, etc)
○ Eclipse Mosquitto provides MQTT broker

Data Aggregation
PLC Development
● Existing systems are often closed
and proprietary systems
● Difficult to create flexible
manufacturing processes with
existing PLC environments
● New standards allow for more open
and distributed development (IEC
61499)

Eclipse Ditto: Device-as-a-Service
- A unified resource-based API that can be used to
interact with devices
- Abstracting from the complexity of different device
types and how devices are connected
- State management for physical devices
- Device and sensor properties like temperature,
location, level, fault information, etc.
Configuration properties of sensors and actors like
thresholds, intervals, ranges, toggles and limits, etc

Industry 4.0 Testbed
Problem Statement
●Industrial equipment deployed on factory floors
today use a wide variety of protocols that allows
them to be controlled and expose their condition
●It makes it hard to process production
performance data in an efficient way, and virtually
impossible to implement Industry 4.0 practices
such as predictive maintenance.

Bridge heterogenous
systems (Modbus, OPC-UA,
…) to a common data model
