We have two instances of Kepware, one Kepware is connected to DST machines, the other one is more of a central server which gets machine data in OPC UA from third party apps and feeds data to Apps for analysis. both the Kepware instances can be connected via OPC UA connection. But is there any PTC recommended way to do this?

Using the OPC UA client driver, you can make an OPC UA connection from one KEPServer install to another. OPC UA is preferred over OPC DA as it is more secure.
