Connecting PLCs to Cloud using Robomap.ai

Secure, scalable, no-code connectivity from industrial devices to dashboards, APIs, analytics, and third-party systems.

Reference architecture

Device connection architecture

How the connection works

  1. Connect PLCs, RTUs, robots, or industrial equipment to an edge gateway on the OT network.
  2. Normalize device protocols and buffer data locally when connectivity is interrupted.
  3. Send encrypted telemetry to Robomap using MQTT or HTTPS over TLS 1.2+.
  4. Use the Robomap platform for ingestion, storage, analytics, alerts, dashboards, APIs, and exports.

Recommended security baseline

  • Segment OT and IT networks and expose only the gateway outbound path.
  • Use encrypted transport, credential rotation, and least-privilege API credentials.
  • Monitor gateway health, ingestion status, and alert delivery from the cloud platform.
