Protocol Converters | Unified Namespace (UNS) Basics 6
In this sixth and final part of the UNS Basics series, we explain the concept of protocol converters. A protocol converter is used when data is not communicated using the MQTT protocol. This video explores how various data types are converted and which tools the United Manufacturing Hub uses for protocol conversion. ➡️ If you want to learn more about the Unified Namespace, you can read this article: https://learn.umh.app/course/the-unified-namespace-as-the-strongest-architectural-proposal-for-industry-4-0/ ➡️ Watch previous video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=elfh1RB4iwM

Data Contextualisation / Stream Processing | Unified Namespace (UNS) Basics 5
In this fifth part of the UNS Basics series, we explain how the unstructured data from all producers is further processed. The goal is to organize the data topics and message structures to match the semantic hierarchy. This step is called data contextualization or stream processing. We demonstrate the process with an example and list common tools used. If you are interested in learning how we process unstructured data, visit our website: https://www.umh.app/

Sending data to a message broker | Unified Namespace (UNS) Basics 4
In this fourth part of the UNS basics series, we discuss which data is sent to the message broker. Given the relatively small volume of data in Operational Technology (OT), all the data is sent to the message broker regardless of the immediate presence of a consumer. This approach allows us to decide later which data to retain or discard. If you are interested in learning how we use a message broker in our product, visit our website: https://www.umh.app/
