OPC UA is widely used as a data exchange standard that bridges the gap between OT and IT. A key part of this standard consists of extensible information models and companion specifications. However, many solutions based on OPC UA fail to exploit the potential of these information models and companion specifications. This editorial explains the benefits offered by OPC UA information models and how information models interact with the other components in an IoT solution.
