The [OPC Foundation](https://opcfoundation.org/), established in 1994, is a global organization dedicated to developing and maintaining open communication standards for industrial automation. The foundation’s primary mission is to enable secure and reliable interoperability between diverse devices, systems, and applications, regardless of the manufacturer or platform. Over the years, the foundation has introduced several standards, with OPC-UA (Unified Architecture) being its most advanced and versatile protocol. OPC-UA builds upon the earlier OPC standards by providing a platform-independent, secure, and scalable solution designed to meet the demands of modern industrial automation and IIoT (Industrial Internet of Things) applications.
