The Practical & Proven Platform for Digital Transformation
Digital data is the new oil in the industrial world, and your devices push and publish data by the barrel. But many companies struggle to get data into the hands of those who need it because of difficult-to-use software, old architectures, or restrictive licensing models. Since 2003, Inductive Automation has helped companies and enterprises transform their processes and operations. Our flagship product, Ignition, provides an IIoT solution that utilizes publish-and-subscribe methodology to decouple devices from applications so valuable information can flow within your infrastructure when and where it’s needed.

Major Features
Collect All Your Data, Design Any Application & Deploy Anywhere
Ignition uses native drivers and leverages open standards to support connections with any device, service, or database to create a streamlined data pipeline for IIoT solutions. And with a full suite of powerful modules to choose from — offering features like mobile-responsive dashboards, alarm notifications, enterprise administration, and more — Ignition equips you to build the exact solution you need and deploy it to any screen. Ignition ties data and people together, and facilitates total enterprise integration.
Swap Clipboards for Dynamic Dashboards
Ignition's real-time monitoring gives you the power to quickly see your facility's status on any device. Gone are the days of tracking your data with clipboards, whiteboards, and spreadsheets as Ignition enables you to build customizable digital dashboards that show your processes' actual, real-time tag values.
Manage Data at the Source
Ignition uses Sparkplug to lay the foundation for data management. It creates data definition standards, and develops a workflow structure for databases. It also establishes a single source of truth (SSOT), so properties edited at a source are updated across all synced connections. Edit once, update “auto-magically.”
Publish and Subscribe
With Ignition's IIoT capabilities, users can decouple devices from their one-to-one links with applications and push data directly to a central hub. From there, data can flow freely and be instantly published and subscribed to by any industrial or business application.
“Before, getting real-time data was a struggle. Now with Ignition, the data is immediately available.”

“Ignition is our entry point into digital transformation. And it grows with you, at a desired pace. It's not just smoke and mirrors, there are real gains happening from this!”
– Remus Pop
Flexible and Scalable Architectures
Ignition is a firm-yet-flexible foundation. A server-centric solution, it bridges the OT-IT gap and connects field devices, clients, and applications on any desktop, mobile, or touch-screen device. It’s also a scalable solution that can be a single onsite server, an enterprise with multiple remote servers, or a hybrid. You can even build your own IIoT solution using Ignition and the MQTT Modules from Cirrus Link Solutions.
