OPC UA Migration & Legacy System Integration Guides

As industrial organizations modernize their infrastructure, many are looking to migrate to OPC UA in order to benefit from improved security, platform independence, and standardized communication. However, replacing existing OPC Classic systems is not always practical or cost-effective. The OPC UA Wrapper provides a seamless and secure migration path. Developed by Integration Objects, this plug-and-play solution enables interoperability between OPC Classic and OPC Unified Architecture systems without disrupting existing installations. A Practical Approach to Migrating to OPC UA Instead of removing legacy systems, the OPC UA Wrapper acts as a bridge between technologies. It allows organizations to gradually transition toward OPC UA while preserving their current investments in OPC Classic servers and clients. This approach reduces risk, minimizes downtime, and ensures continuous data availability during the migration process. How the OPC UA Wrapper Works The solution consists of two complementary components designed to enable full interoperability. The first component, the OPC UA Wrapper, connects OPC Classic servers to OPC UA clients. It maps the address space of a classic OPC server into an OPC UA server structure, allowing modern applications to securely access legacy data. The second component, the OPC UA Proxy, enables communication in the opposite direction. It bridges OPC UA servers with OPC Classic clients, ensuring backward compatibility in mixed environments. Together, these components create a secure tunneling mechanism that simplifies integration between both technologies. Benefits of Migrating with OPC UA Wrapper Using this solution allows companies to transition to OPC UA without redesigning their entire infrastructure. It supports secure communication between systems, reduces integration complexity, and enables interoperability across multi-vendor environments. Because it functions as a bridge rather than a replacement, deployment is straightforward and can be completed with minimal operational disruption. See how to easily set up this OPC UA solution.
