SCADA Systems Get a Boost From IIoT and Digitalization
工業(yè)物聯(lián)網(wǎng)和數(shù)字化推動(dòng)SCADA系統(tǒng)發(fā)展

Many believe that unlocking real-data insights are critical and indispensable for future industrial facilities and businesses. Though such developments are rapidly accelerating the use of Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems, the increased prevalence of cybersecurity threats is acting as a challenge for both the SCADA solutions providers and end-user firms.

許多人認(rèn)為，對(duì)于未來的工業(yè)設(shè)施和企業(yè)來說，解鎖真實(shí)數(shù)據(jù)的洞察力是至關(guān)重要和不可或缺的。盡管這些發(fā)展正在迅速加快數(shù)據(jù)采集與監(jiān)控（SCADA）系統(tǒng)的使用，但網(wǎng)絡(luò)安全威脅的日益盛行對(duì)SCADA解決方案供應(yīng)商和最終用戶公司都是一個(gè)挑戰(zhàn)。

The SCADA market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 6.01% during the forecast period to reach US$34.519 billion by 2027, from US$22.946 billion in 2020. Industrial IoT (IIoT) and Industry 4.0 technologies are anticipated to add impetus to the growth of the market in the projected period.

在預(yù)測(cè)期內(nèi)，SCADA市場(chǎng)預(yù)計(jì)將以6.01%的復(fù)合年增長(zhǎng)率增長(zhǎng)，到2027年達(dá)到345.19億美元，而2020年為229.46億美元。工業(yè)物聯(lián)網(wǎng)（IIoT）和工業(yè)4.0技術(shù)預(yù)計(jì)將在預(yù)測(cè)期內(nèi)為市場(chǎng)的增長(zhǎng)增加動(dòng)力。

Although IIoT and SCADA differ in multiple aspects, they share a common goal. The integration of IIoT and SCADA enables a holistic understanding of the entire operational processes in a much more simplified manner. Traditionally, SCADA requires the manual generation of the analytic reports, but this process can be efficiently automated in less time and get quality insights when integrated with IIoT solutions. With the advent of IIoT, modern SCADA was updated with several appealing parameters such as scalability and data analytics, thus improving the market landscape of SCADA.

盡管IIoT和SCADA在多個(gè)方面有所不同，但它們有一個(gè)共同的目標(biāo)。IIoT和SCADA的整合能夠以更簡(jiǎn)化的方式對(duì)整個(gè)運(yùn)營(yíng)過程進(jìn)行整體了解。傳統(tǒng)上，SCADA需要手動(dòng)生成分析報(bào)告，但當(dāng)與IIoT解決方案整合時(shí)，這一過程可以在更短的時(shí)間內(nèi)有效地自動(dòng)化，并獲得高質(zhì)量的洞察力。隨著IIoT的出現(xiàn)，現(xiàn)代SCADA被更新了幾個(gè)吸引人的參數(shù)，如可擴(kuò)展性和數(shù)據(jù)分析，從而改善了SCADA的市場(chǎng)前景。

With the growing stringent compliance requirements, demand for effective production processes and supply chain, product quality, and the need for constant process optimization are adding impetus to the market’s growth. Similarly, the growing trend of digitalization is also another factor aiding the market’s growth. For instance, according to the survey conducted by SAP SE in 2020, of the total 400 worldwide C-level healthcare executives, about 70 percent showed a willingness to digitize their operational processes.

隨著日益嚴(yán)格的合規(guī)性要求，對(duì)有效的生產(chǎn)流程和供應(yīng)鏈、產(chǎn)品質(zhì)量的需求，以及對(duì)持續(xù)的流程優(yōu)化的需求，都為市場(chǎng)的增長(zhǎng)增加了動(dòng)力。同樣，日益增長(zhǎng)的數(shù)字化趨勢(shì)也是幫助市場(chǎng)增長(zhǎng)的另一個(gè)因素。例如，根據(jù)SAP SE在2020年進(jìn)行的調(diào)查，在全球總共400名C級(jí)醫(yī)療主管中，約70%的人表示愿意將他們的操作流程數(shù)字化。
 
Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition consist of multiple computers, user interfaces, and networked data communications for monitoring machines and the operation processes. This control system integrates hardware and software elements, enabling the firms to monitor and regulate the operational processes locally or remotely while monitoring, collating, and analyzing the data in real-time. Furthermore, it also directly interacts with devices like pumps, sensors, motors, valves, and human-machine interface software. The demand for SCADA in industrial enterprises is high, as it not only processes data rapidly, aiding in smart decision-making but also communicates the issues among systems to decrease downtime, all while maintaining high efficiency.

監(jiān)控和數(shù)據(jù)采集由多臺(tái)計(jì)算機(jī)、用戶界面和網(wǎng)絡(luò)數(shù)據(jù)通信組成，用于監(jiān)視機(jī)器和操作過程。這種控制系統(tǒng)整合了硬件和軟件元素，使企業(yè)能夠在本地或遠(yuǎn)程監(jiān)控和調(diào)節(jié)操作過程，同時(shí)實(shí)時(shí)監(jiān)測(cè)、整理和分析數(shù)據(jù)。此外，它還與泵、傳感器、電機(jī)、閥門和人機(jī)界面軟件等設(shè)備直接互動(dòng)。工業(yè)企業(yè)對(duì)SCADA的需求很高，因?yàn)樗粌H能快速處理數(shù)據(jù)，幫助智能決策，而且還能在系統(tǒng)之間溝通問題，減少停機(jī)時(shí)間，同時(shí)保持高效率。

SCADA offers many appealing advantages, including interoperability, scalability, communications, and support, attracting diverse firm owners, including oil and gas, energy, food and beverage, transportation, recycling, and many more, and enabling them to adapt these control systems as their backbone. The global landscape of the SCADA market is segmented based on component types, end-user industry, architecture, and geographical regions.

SCADA提供了許多吸引人的優(yōu)勢(shì)，包括互操作性、可擴(kuò)展性、通信和支持，吸引了包括石油和天然氣、能源、食品和飲料、運(yùn)輸、循環(huán)回收等不同的公司業(yè)主，并使他們能夠適應(yīng)這些控制系統(tǒng)作為其骨干。SCADA市場(chǎng)的全球格局是根據(jù)組件類型、最終用戶行業(yè)、架構(gòu)和地理區(qū)域來劃分的。
