### Listen to a recent episode of Inductive Automation's *Ignited* podcast to see how the open-source MQTT protocol has completely changed industrial data architectures.

Are you looking to build systems that move data—reliably and securely—across an enterprise? Have proprietary approaches slowed you down or locked you in?

Episode 4 of Inductive Automation's new *Ignited* podcast is a must listen! The co-inventor of MQTT, Arlen Nipper, and Opto 22 VP Benson Hougland are the featured guests on this podcast, reviewing industrial automation technology and taking you into the future.

Inductive Automation's Travis Cox and Thomas Burke host this discussion about why MQTT and Sparkplug B are now the key to scalable industrial data, and why edge computing changes everything.

Listen in on these insightful conversations:

### New case study explains how Genesee County Drain Commissioner - Water & Waste Services solved their slow radio polling communication problem over 600 square miles.

Communication breakdowns in industrial systems aren’t just frustrating—they’re costly, disruptive, and often difficult to diagnose. 

The Genesee County Drain Commissioner Division of Water & Waste Service (GCDC-WWS) in Michigan struggled with the communication slowdowns in their legacy radio polling system. Poor alarming meant operators could not reliably fine-tune the pumping stations. With 180 remote sites across 600 square miles, these delays became unacceptable.

This new case study shows you how they solved the problem.

### New podcast discusses key takeaways and benefits from using open source technology.

Are you thinking about investing in IIoT but don't know where to start? It used to sound like a futuristic concept, but industrial internet of things technologies are here and you don't want to be left behind.

IIoT protocols like MQTT and Sparkplug are becoming more popular for good reason—and an important part of Opto 22's [*groov* EPIC](https://www.opto22.com/products/groov-epic-system) and [*groov* RIO](https://www.opto22.com/products/groov-rio) product lines.

Tune in to this new podcast, [Unplugged: An IIoT Podcast](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uZ7G-clUYRw)for a better understanding of the role MQTT, TCP/IP, and VPN play in the IIoT.

### See how you can quickly, easily, and cost-effectively capture and publish live images from remote sites to the cloud via MQTT/Sparkplug.

If you couldn’t attend the Ignition Community Conference or want a closer look, here’s your chance to experience it recorded with Opto 22's *groov* EPIC booth cam.

With the expertise of Alex Marcy from [Corso Systems](https://corsosystems.com/) and Jason Hamlin from [Inframark](https://www.inframark.com/), we captured live booth footage using an off-the-shelf, IP-based camera, Ignition Edge, its MQTT Transmission module, and Node-RED, all running on a single [*groov* EPIC](https://www.opto22.com/products/groov-epic-system).

Check out this one-minute time lapse video.

### Preventing spills and improving operational efficiency using Opto 22's *groov* RIO.

Texas-based Point Energy Partners (PEP) specializes in acquiring and developing onshore U.S. oil and gas properties with extensive experience working in major basins across the nation. PEP owns and operates the majority of the gathering and midstream assets for its operations, including its very large water recycling program, which showcases their commitment to sustainable and efficient resource management.

In an industry where every spill carries a hefty price tag, PEP found that the manual and low-tech systems at their water sites were a significant problem. These sites did not have a big budget for upgrades, so most control solutions on the market just wouldn’t fit the bill.

### The Eclipse Foundation recently announced the Sparkplug international standard achievement.

Sparkplug, the MQTT specification that enhances the way your Opto 22 *groov* systems communicate and operate, has achieved the ISO/IEC 20237:2023 International Standard Status. It’s a significant milestone in the IIoT world, particularly for Opto 22 and our users. As you know, Opto 22 adopted Sparkplug years ago because of its reliability, efficiency, and plug-and-play functionality in modern IIoT architectures. It’s nice to see the rest of the industry accepting and adopting this groundbreaking tech.

### The latest 3.5 firmware updates for *groov* EPIC and RIO include new Sparkplug 3 compatible certification.

*groov* products have always supported the MQTT and Sparkplug communication protocols, so what's important about this latest Sparkplug update?

*groov* EPIC and RIO are some of the few hardware devices to pass a series of tests for the Sparkplug Compatibility Program, managed by the Eclipse Foundation.

### The latest *groov* RIO 3.5 firmware update offers a CODESYS programming option along with enhancements for performance and security.

*groov* RIO firmware 3.5 is here! And the big news is the CODESYS runtime engine has been added. That means now you can run a control program on *groov* RIO—one you build in CODESYS using any of the IEC 61131-3 compliant languages.

The engineers have kept their fingers on the keyboard here at Opto HQ and are beyond excited about the release of version 3.5 firmware for the *groov* RIO family. We can't wait to see what applications our awesome customers come up with, now that the CODESYS runtime engine has been added to the complete [*groov* RIO Trio](https://www.opto22.com/products/groov-rio/groov-rio-models).
