Why We Built SiteSync

With Ignition, SiteSync is your home for IIoT data.

SiteSync addresses the challenges of Stranded Data.

Traditional OT technologies in the Process Control Network often use proprietary protocols and legacy equipment that are not easily compatible with modern IIoT devices and platforms. IT's focus on cloud-based architectures with strong central management doesn't work for OT use cases. SiteSync leverages Ignition's flexibility of architectures to build solutions that give IIoT data a home and meet the needs of both OT and IT. SiteSync's LoRaWAN Module is a flexible and scalable platform that integrates seamlessly with Ignition, enabling users to easily onboard, troubleshoot, and monitor LoRaWAN devices through a user-friendly interface. Some specific challenges addressed include:

SiteSync addresses the challenges of Stranded Data.
High Installation Costs and Connectivity Issues

SiteSync leverages LoRaWAN, which is cost-effective and easy to deploy. These sensors are significantly cheaper than traditional wired instruments, reducing installation and maintenance costs by up to 90%. This makes it possible to collect data from remote or hard-to-reach assets.

Data Silos and Integration Difficulties

SiteSync integrates various data sources into a unified system using Ignition. It supports multiple protocols like Modbus, MQTT, and HART, enabling seamless data collection and integration. By breaking down data silos, SiteSync ensures that data from mixed equipment, plant historians, older meters, controls, and newer sensors are aggregated into a single data lake or warehouse for comprehensive analytics.

Manual Data Collection

SiteSync automates data collection and provides real-time insights with Ignition’s powerful visualization and modeling tools. The use of UDTs in Ignition makes it easier to manage and analyze data from various assets.

Digital Transformation doesn't have to be complicated.

Deploying and scaling your sensor management platform should be efficient and straightforward. SiteSync is built around this idea - from selecting and onboarding new sensors through scaling your platform for multiple sites, SiteSync makes IIoT easy.

Digital Transformation doesn't have to be complicated.
The system just works.

There's no need to be an expert in system architecture, unless you want to be, of course. Either way, the SiteSync team vets the full architecture to ensure the system components will work and accomplish your sensor management and data goals. It's important that devices and components that show up in your facility will perform within the SiteSync ecosystem. We test the sensors and gateways we list on our site so that you won't have to.
