Industrial application platform for SCADA, IIoT, and MES systems
Inductive Automation builds Ignition, a universal platform for industrial software across SCADA, IIoT, MES, and edge applications. The tech stack reveals a modernized engineering approach—React, TypeScript, Docker, Terraform—alongside industrial protocols (OPC UA, Modbus, MQTT), suggesting they're bridging legacy manufacturing systems with cloud-native tooling. Active projects around AI-based monitoring, generative AI for test data, and production environment simulation indicate a shift toward observability and reliability in complex industrial deployments.
Inductive Automation develops Ignition, an industrial software platform used by 69% of Fortune 100 companies to build and deploy industrial applications across SCADA, IIoT, historian, alarming, and MES workloads. The platform abstracts away the complexity of connecting disparate industrial hardware and protocols (OPC DA/UA, Modbus, MQTT) while providing a unified application development environment. Headquartered in Folsom, California, the company operates as a privately held organization with 201–500 employees, selling to large manufacturing and process automation enterprises. Current pain points center on performance troubleshooting in complex environments and accelerating root cause analysis—priorities reflected in recent projects on benchmark testing and AI-driven monitoring.
Inductive Automation uses Ignition (proprietary platform), React, TypeScript, Java, and industrial protocols including OPC UA, Modbus, and MQTT. Infrastructure tooling includes Docker, Vagrant, Terraform, SQL Server, and MySQL. DevOps and IT management include ServiceNow, Jira, and Intune.
