and secondly when used with thingwork what would be architectural flow of the whole

would it be sensor->kepserverex->thingworx

Hi Jugal,

KepserverEX it's a  OPC Client and a OPC Server, plus it has plenty of Plug-ins to communicate with different Industrial protocols ( BACNet, ModBus,.... )

And the communication flow it's how you said, but it's bidirectional, you can read data from sensor and through Kepserver send to ThingWorx and ThingWorx write data to the sensor.

Best Regards,
