I have an interest in Process Automation and wish to transfer time-series data from an OPC UA Server to TimescaleDB. There are numerous products available (OPC Router, PTC KERserverEX) I also believe it was possible with Telegraf. My limited understanding is that this is now maintained by influxdata so perhaps the output to PostgreSQL is no longer available. Can anybody comment or suggest alternative approaches? Thanks.
I’m working for a Swiss Research organisation on Automation and Automatic Control, we don’t use OPC unified architecture, but I started googling on your question.
maybe the following would work:
OPC UA ↔ telegraf ↔ timescaleDB
given these two pages:
Thanks for the feedback. I have had a quick look at telegraf. I am slightly concerned as it is maintained by influxdb and it may not be in their interest in keep the Postgresql output updated. However, I configured the OPC UA input but currently struggling with Postgresql on the output side.
