Sparkplug SiteWise Bridge

Sparkplug SiteWise Bridge is not available but is coming October, 2020

Sparkplug SiteWise Bridge is an application that is deployed via AWS Marketplace as a launchable Amazon Machine Image (AMI) in AWS EC2. It connects to an MQTT Server (such as AWS IoT Core) and consumes MQTT Sparkplug messages from Edge devices. After receiving messages that are properly formatted it then pushes that data into AWS SiteWise in a form that it can consume. This model continues Cirrus Link's vision of 'one source of truth' at the Edge that can be pushed from the OT networks to IT networks without complex data transformations or manipulation as it flows from one system to the next.

Sparkplug SiteWise Bridge is deployed in its simplest form as shown in the diagram below.

Sparkplug SiteWise Bridge performs the following functions.

• Connects to an MQTT Server to be able to receive MQTT Sparkplug messages from the Edge
• Connects to AWS SiteWise to do the following
  • Automatically creates SiteWise Asset Models that have been created at the Edge - these are propagated on the wire as Sparkplug Templates
