This stack has the benefit of working on all common software platforms in market today, allowing the creation of OPC UA clients, servers and of course \u201cOPC Publishers\u201d on Windows Vista, 7, 8, 8.1, 10, iOS, Linux and Android platforms.<\/p>\n<p>As we continue our support for manufacturers with their Industry 4.0 initiatives, these developments are an important step forward in terms of digitally assisting production, maintenance, and service workers across all device form factors, regardless of platform, with broad access to relevant insights and collaboration tools. This has the potential to vastly increase the share of OPC-enabled devices, open up scenarios in new verticals that leverage powerful capabilities in the cloud, and create\u00a0a virtuous beneficial cycle across a broad ecosystem.<\/p>\n<p>I encourage you to read more about this exciting news on Sam George\u2019s blog <a
