Is there a work around instead of Kepware, Clients wanna use the Thingworx, but kepware is too costly to be afforded by the client. Is there a Work around open source where we can get data from OPC UA Modbus TCP Protocol and then send to the Thingworx.

Thanks !!
Solved! Go to Solution.
OPC aggregator does support OPC UA/DA (only) southbound and Thingworx (only) northbound and is free. It's a limited version of Kepserver.

Hi @pandersson ,
Can you share the link, to download it. I tried, but not able to find it on google.
Hi @pandersson ,
Can we create the Channel based on the Modcus TCP Protocol, because we get the tag values based on the Allen Bradley and Modbus TCP Protocol ?
Thanks !!
Nope,
OPC aggregator only support OPC UA/DA channels.

Hi @pandersson ,
Thanks for the Quick response, is there any other ways, where I can connect the Modbus TCP Protocol and connect it to the Thingworx ?
You may build your own agent or find a server that talks Modbus and integrate it to Thingworx using rest, MQTT or edge sdk, but in the end I think it's cheaper and quicker to buy Kepwere modbus suite.
Another alternative is to use a Gateway, (OPC UA, MQTT, MODBUS TCP/IP): https://www.kepfrance.fr/pupitres-ihm/passerelles-iiot/opc-ua-mqtt-modbus-tcp-ip/cmt-g01-passerelle-iiot--a1656.html
And, then you can use OPC Aggregator
