This helps businesses to introduce a standardised connectivity architecture that can be scaled across an entire organisation easily.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAs facilities grow and become more advanced, so does the need to connect and manage data between various devices and software clients,\u201d says George Walker, managing director of Novotek UK and Ireland. \u201cThis can lead to issues of connectivity between devices from different manufacturers. Kepware serves as a bridge between these devices, allowing data to be freely communicated.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cTraditionally, the approach would be for industrial businesses to consult with an automation expert to define the exact Kepware configuration that is needed. However, the product is all about simplifying connectivity, and we want to reflect that by adding the configuration options to our estore. This allows engineers to easily specify and procure the exact product they need to unify their plant\u2019s data communications.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another key benefit of using Kepware is its simplified deployment and flexible pricing, using just one unlock key to access all servers, offering at the same time an enterprise subscription pricing that scales with your deployment. This enterprise model helps create a standardised connectivity and repeatable architecture that can scale across the entire organisation and accelerate Industry 4.0 initiatives.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Industrial automation specialist Novotek is expanding its commitment to deliver the best industrial equipment by making Kepware software solutions readily available to industrial businesses.\u00a0 The product promises to bridge the connectivity gaps between diverse industrial automation devices and applications.
