KEPServerEX - Maximize the Promise
of OPC with
a single OPC server interface for multiple protocols.
KEPServerEX is the latest generation of Kepware's OPC server technology.
It was designed to allow you to quickly setup communications to your control
systems via a wide range of available "plug-in" device
drivers and components. With over 100 drivers that support hundreds of
model types,
getting data to your client is easy. The KEPServerEX also provides a common
and self-evident user interface across all drivers which provides consistent
access from your OPC client application every time you use the product
no matter what driver you use. You can add many devices utilizing multiple
drivers all within the KEPServerEX interface without worrying about learning
new communication protocols or spending time understanding new applications.
Application Connectivity:
KEPServerEX is continually enhanced to provide the widest range of connectivity
of any server product available. KEPServerEX supports the following client
server technologies:

Learn more about Application Connectivity
It is very common to hear the term "client/server application" in
use across many software disciplines and business segments. In the industrial
market, it has often come to mean the sharing of manufacturing or production
data between a variety of client applications ranging from human machine
interface software and data historians, to large MES and ERP applications.
In order for client applications to get data, they must connect to a server
that will retrieve it for them in a standard form. The problem is that
there are many devices and systems in the industrial market that you might
want to get data from, but each may speak a different "language" or
protocol. It is here that Kepware's KEPServerEX comes into play.
The KEPServerEX's job is to get device and system data and translate it
into a standard communication protocol (OPC or DDE) that all clients can
receive and understand
