Conventional Migration

Approaches to Migration

OT / IT Integration Platform


Agenda

CONVENTIONAL MIGRATION

Grid Automation Case Studies


• Serial; bit / byte protocols

• Low baud rate

• Time sensitivity

• Modem / leased line

• TCP / UDP based or RS232/485 Serial;

• Higher - state transition, security & functionality

• Model support

Migration

Eastern US Utility

Challenges

• Support CONITEL at control center

• Retain leased line while migrating SCADA /

EMS to DNP3

Benefits

• Cost effective transition

• Fast deployment, minimal disruption

Utility in Asia

Challenge

• Monitor/upload fault files from legacy &

standards based relays for asset

monitoring and configuration

Benefits

• Protocol conversion at edge simplifies

upstream communication

• Minimal changes required at control

center

Integration & Migration Challenges

Integrate

at Edge

Centralized

Integration

• New SCADA/DMS - legacy supported front end at

control center for translation

• Existing SCADA/DMS – Current protocol supported; front

end at control center to translate new to legacy

• Integrate from the SCADA – Add JSON/REST or MQTT

or OPC-UA Interface to SCADA for integration with IT

• Gateways support legacy & standard protocols

• Gateways for security compliance

• Gateways for transition from leased lines to IP

• Integrate IT layer – JSON/REST or MQTT or OPC-UA

Interface to IT

Edge Control Center

Pros Standardize on one up stream

protocol

Centralize complexity

Complexity & security managed at

edge; phased migration possible

Easy to migrate SCADA without

affecting field devices

Easy to migrate field devices with

minimal change at control center

Asset & device monitoring possible

with the new gen gateways

Cons Need to manage more individual

devices/protocols

Troubleshooting can be more complex;

entire data path may require review to

solve a problem

Staff needs to be trained on new and

old protocols and interfaces

Need to retain dedicated comm to

bring legacy data to control center

Lack device management & monitoring
