Ignition Edge is a condensed version of the Ignition Gateway. Ignition Edge has the same familiar UI and can be configured with MQTT Transmission module, which is an MQTT Client that takes Ignition tags and transmits them to the MQTT Server. Ignition Edge solutions come with unlimited tags and are equipped with OPC UA along with Modbus, TCP, and Siemens drivers, and the Allen-Bradley suite of drivers. Other drivers supported by Ignition, such as DNP3 and Modbus RTU, can be added onto Ignition Edge solutions for an additional cost.
