As a distributor, you can choose what you sell, but you don’t control how it’s built, how consistent it is, or how it behaves when something goes wrong. You’re tied to other people’s factories, schedules, and quality standards.  Sound familiar? As a cryogenic equipment distributor, Rutherford & Titan experienced all these limits firsthand. When their customers were calling on them for support even after product installations, they knew they had to take their operations to the next level and have more control of the whole process. Read the new case study that explains how and why they went from reseller to manufacturer.

Automation plays a key role in this expanding business segment. The Microclimates control system is based around a software core that is delivered on Opto 22’s [groov RIO](https://www.opto22.com/products/groov-rio), a platform that fits nicely into IIoT applications requiring simple data exchange between software or cloud applications and field I/O.

Sometimes you can just fulfill your normal duties of designing, building, and commissioning a controls/automation system. But then other times you find yourself thrown into the mix as the sales estimator—asked to come up with a budgetary number for a project—or you’re deemed the “IT” person for a project. Being designated the “IT” person can be a difficult road to navigate. Often you’re not truly an admin on any given network, but you’re asked to perform the duties of an admin.

I once heard the phrase, "even a Cadillac will fail prematurely if you drive it into a brick wall." Premature failure of the machinery (regardless of whose fault) can tarnish the image of the manufacturer, lead to increased warranty costs, and create tension between OEMs and end users. But how do I (the machine builder) get access to the control system if it is operating inside a customer’s firewall?  [Read More](https://blog.opto22.com/optoblog/outbound-monitor-oem-machinery-with-little-to-no-it-involvement) 3 Comments [Click here to read/write comments](https://blog.opto22.com/optoblog/outbound-monitor-oem-machinery-with-little-to-no-it-involvement#comments-listing) Topics: [Remote monitoring](https://blog.opto22.com/optoblog/topic/remote-monitoring), [Machine builder](https://blog.opto22.com/optoblog/topic/machine-builder), [OEM](https://blog.opto22.com/optoblog/topic/oem), [IIoT](https://blog.opto22.com/optoblog/topic/iiot), [Industrial Internet of Things](https://blog.opto22.com/optoblog/topic/industrial-internet-of-things), [Node-RED](https://blog.opto22.com/optoblog/topic/node-red), [Data acquisition](https://blog.opto22.com/optoblog/topic/data-acquisition), [MQTT](https://blog.opto22.com/optoblog/topic/mqtt), [EPIC](https://blog.opto22.com/optoblog/topic/epic) ## [ARC Advisory Group interviews Opto 22's Benson Hougland on IIoT products](https://blog.opto22.com/optoblog/arc-advisory-group-interviews-opto-22) Posted by [Jean Femia](https://blog.opto22.com/optoblog/author/jean-femia) on Mar 28, 2018, 12:01:00 PM - [Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) [![](https://blog.opto22.com/hubfs/arc_logo_250x166jpg.jpg)](https://blog.opto22.com/optoblog/arc-advisory-group-interviews-opto-22) The 22nd Annual ARC Industry Forum in Orlando this February focused on digitizing and securing industry and infrastructure.  [Read More](https://blog.opto22.com/optoblog/arc-advisory-group-interviews-opto-22) 0 Comments [Click here to read/write comments](https://blog.opto22.com/optoblog/arc-advisory-group-interviews-opto-22#comments-listing) Topics: [groov](https://blog.opto22.com/optoblog/topic/groov), [Internet of Things](https://blog.opto22.com/optoblog/topic/internet-of-things), [Remote monitoring](https://blog.opto22.com/optoblog/topic/remote-monitoring), [IoT](https://blog.opto22.com/optoblog/topic/iot), [PACs](https://blog.opto22.com/optoblog/topic/pacs), [New products](https://blog.opto22.com/optoblog/topic/new-products), [Events & conferences](https://blog.opto22.com/optoblog/topic/events-conferences), [API](https://blog.opto22.com/optoblog/topic/api), [REST API](https://blog.opto22.com/optoblog/topic/rest-api), [REST](https://blog.opto22.com/optoblog/topic/rest), [IIoT](https://blog.opto22.com/optoblog/topic/iiot), [Industrial Internet of Things](https://blog.opto22.com/optoblog/topic/industrial-internet-of-things), [Node-RED](https://blog.opto22.com/optoblog/topic/node-red), [Data acquisition](https://blog.opto22.com/optoblog/topic/data-acquisition), [Ignition Edge](https://blog.opto22.com/optoblog/topic/ignition-edge), [EPIC](https://blog.opto22.com/optoblog/topic/epic) ## [Order your new groov EPIC system starting now](https://blog.opto22.com/optoblog/pre-order-your-new-groov-epic-system) Posted by [Jean Femia](https://blog.opto22.com/optoblog/author/jean-femia) on Mar 26, 2018, 12:01:00 PM - [Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) [![](https://blog.opto22.com/hs-fs/hubfs/social-suggested-images/groovEPIC.png?t=1521655212922&width=280&name=groovEPIC.png)](https://blog.opto22.com/optoblog/pre-order-your-new-groov-epic-system) Opto 22's ***groov* EPIC® system** starts shipping on May 18. **You can start ordering now!** Pre-orders will ship first, and based on early feedback from several EPIC Roadshows, this new system will be in high demand. Customers are excited about the built-in features of *groov* EPIC, not only for IIoT applications but for all automation and data acquisition applications.

Now let's take a look at when you might want to use each, and why. ## Request-response: proven and reliable In a request-response architecture, each client opens a direct connection to each server, because the client requests data directly from the server. In automation, typically clients are PCs and servers are PLCs or PACs.
