Inductive Automation has released Ignition Cloud Edition, a fully hosted enterprise solution deployed on leading cloud platforms. Ignition Cloud Edition is now available in the AWS Marketplace.

This pay-as-you-go solution extends on-premises data and enterprise operations and brings greater elasticity to architecture design. Ignition Cloud Edition works together with the standard Ignition platform and Ignition Edge, creating a more Ignition Cloud Editionintegrated and scalable system that is designed to connect people, processes, and programs to help accelerate digital transformation.

Ignition Cloud Edition comes packaged with Ignition Core Modules: Perspective, Reporting, SQL Bridge, OPC UA, Enterprise Administration Module (EAM), Tag Historian, and Alarm Notification. It also includes the Web Development, Twilio Notification, and Voice Notification modules, as well as the MQTT Engine, MQTT Distributor, MQTT Transmission modules from Cirrus Link Solutions. A cloud connector module called the MongoDB Module is also included, and Cloud Edition users will get new cloud connector modules as they become available.

Ignition Cloud Edition’s pay-as-you-go purchasing model helps to open up budget options, which can allow companies to use part of their operating expenditure budget allotted for cloud services instead of capital expenditures. It is important to note that Cloud Edition is not SaaS, and users are responsible for configuration, backup, and upgrades of the software. Cloud Edition is backed by TotalCare Support, which includes unlimited phone and web support, upgrade protection, and discounts on training courses.
