My main use case for Ignition is for study with the Maker Edition, where I make experiments and tests, but the principal case is for projects of Automind, where we work mainly with PLC and SCADA software, as Ignition is one of the most famous SCADA software. Additionally, we use mainly the Perspective module. I can provide a specific example of how Ignition is used in one of our projects; we have a customer called Edge, where we use a Schneider PLC with a communication module called BMEA Noah, which gives us data via OPC UA protocol, and we set the connection of OPC UA in Ignition to communicate with that module, allowing us to see the tags of the PLC by OPC UA and visualize terminal data. In addition to that example, we have the use of the Perspective module with a cloud application that communicates with edge computers through a gateway network, creating a distributed architecture where users in the cloud can query local site data. In our projects, we use a hybrid cloud deployment with a central application in the cloud and edge computer applications on-premises.
