Scalability
Effective SCADA systems need to offer more than just a solution to current requirements, they need to scale efficiently as demands grow. ClearSCADA was designed with scalability in mind, so if you need to grow your system from a single PC hosting a server and client, to a multi-plant wide area network with clustered servers and hundreds of clients, you’ll have the tools required.
Here are just a few features that make ClearSCADA the most scalable system on the market today:
- Ability to accommodate system sizes ranging from tens to hundreds of thousands of data points;
- Built-in tools for seamless expansion of databases, servers, clients and users;
- Open architecture standards and communication protocols, including OPC, IEC60870, ODBC, HTTP, XML, DNP3 and Modbus;

- Component-object architecture allows for the development of reusable application objects;
- System security, configured to the object level and based on user-access levels and object permissions;
