Profile
When I was exploring automation I noticed a lot of engineers working with modern stacks facing a critical issue when trying to collect data from industrial tools. because industrial tools often come with different protocols(Modbus, OPC UA, etc) in each project developers have to build their own program layer to convert those into modern interfaces like REST and gRPC APIs. Even though few software solutions exist most are tightly bundled with expensive license and come with heavy GUIs. this isn't practical if you just want to grab data for web application or AI systems.So I built a tool called Limen Edge, which converts data coming from different PLC protocols into REST and gRPC APIs.
