Solutions · OT/IT integration
One governed path instead of a wire per system.
Every system that wants plant data currently gets its own driver, script or gateway, each one maintained by someone who understands both ends. Proxus replaces that with one collection layer and many governed consumers.
- Starts with
- One line and one destination system
- Replaces
- Per-system drivers, export scripts and single-purpose gateways
- Leaves you with
- One source definition per machine, reused by every consumer
- Delivers to
- 18 destination systems: databases, message brokers, cloud services and a REST API
Collected once, delivered to every system that needs it.
Signals are collected at the edge, modelled in the hub and delivered to each consumer under one access model.
The shift
What actually changes.
How it works today
- Each consuming system arrives with its own driver, script or gateway
- The same scaling and renaming logic is re-implemented per integration
- A wrong number sends OT and IT looking at different evidence
- Adding the fifth consumer means adding the fifth thing to maintain
With Proxus
- One source definition per machine, reused by every consumer
- Transformation happens once, at the point of collection
- Source, transform and delivery history sit behind every value
- Adding a consumer is a target entry, not a new pipeline
How it plays out
A typical sequence, step by step.
An illustrative sequence, not a customer story: written to show the shape of the work rather than to claim a result. Your equipment, sites and systems decide the detail.
-
Week 1
One line, one destination
Connect a single line and deliver it to the system that complains loudest. Nothing else changes yet.
-
Week 2
Model what was connected
Give the signals units, asset context and a namespace path. The old export keeps running alongside.
-
Week 4
Second consumer, no new pipeline
The next system subscribes to signals that already exist. This is the moment the model pays for itself.
-
Later
Retire the old path
The original script is switched off once the new path has proven itself, one consumer at a time.
What Proxus does here
The working parts behind it.
-
Collect once
A single source definition per machine, regardless of how many systems consume it.
-
Agree on meaning
Modelled signals with units and asset context, so consumers stop guessing what a tag is.
-
Deliver many ways
Databases, brokers, cloud services and business systems, each with its own transport strategy.
All 18 destination systems -
See delivery status
Status, last success and last error per target, and how many messages are queued while it is unreachable, before the consuming team notices.
-
Control who sees what
Role and namespace-path permissions instead of shared database credentials.
-
Explain any number
Source, transformation and delivery history behind every value.
Deployment scope
What a first deployment involves.
- You connect
- One line or cell to start; the equipment stays exactly as it is
- You deliver to
- The system that needs the data most today
- You operate
- One gateway, one hub, both inside your network
- You keep
- Existing integrations running until the new path is trusted
What this enables
- Retire point-to-point links one at a time, without a big-bang migration
- Stop re-implementing the same transformation in every integration
- Give OT and IT an explicit split of ownership instead of an implicit one
- Trace any delivered value back to the machine that produced it
In the product
Every site, gateway and target on one live map
Plants, gateways, the hub and every target on one live map. Each target is a configuration entry rather than a separate pipeline, so adding the next consuming system does not mean adding the next thing to maintain.
Local product environment with simulated data.
Proven in production
One path, feeding what the business already runs.

Questions
What teams ask before starting.
- Do we have to replace our existing integrations on day one?
- No, and you should not. Most teams start with one line and one destination, run it alongside what exists, and retire the old path once the new one has proven itself.
- Who owns the data layer afterwards, OT or IT?
- Usually both, with a clear split: OT owns what is collected and what it means, IT owns where it goes and who can see it. The platform is built to make that split explicit rather than implicit.
- What if IT already has a data platform?
- Then Proxus feeds it. The job here is the OT side of the boundary: collecting reliably and giving the data a documented model before it arrives.
- How long before the first system is receiving data?
- That depends on site access, protocols and how much modelling you want up front, which is exactly what the scoping call establishes. We do not quote a fixed number before seeing the equipment list.
Next step
Start with one line, not a programme.
Pick the line that causes the most arguments about numbers. We will scope what it takes to make that one trustworthy, and what the second and tenth would cost in effort.
