SCADA WebView: A State-of-the-Art Enterprise Transmission SCADA Engine

The Industrial Control System is experiencing a massive redesign because of the digital transition and the promises of Industry 4.0 and Industry 5.0. The convergence of Information Technology and Operational Technology has reinforced the Process Industry as a cyber-physical ecosystem. In today’s industrial automation environment, the Internet of Things and Industrial Internet of Things have become intrinsically tied. SCADA systems are crucial for monitoring and managing control parameters and notifying system failures to reduce downtime in the process industry. The SCADA operations, such as data collection, control operations, and visualization, have undergone substantial changes because of technological advancements. These transformations have motivated us to design and implement a novel SCADA engine using the latest technologies. The SCADA WebView is an innovative Enterprise Transmission SCADA engine developed under the COPS framework for the power sector. It can also be tailored to different process industries. This product has been extensively deployed across the Indian Power Grid. In the future, an AI-based cognitive decision-making system will be incorporated for optimal control.
