How ScadaLogs AI Integrates With Your Existing SCADA Without Replacing It
The first question most water utility engineering teams ask is a practical one: what does integration actually involve? ScadaLogs AI was built to sit on top of existing infrastructure not to replace it.
An Intelligence Layer
Your existing SCADA system continues to run exactly as it does today. ScadaLogs AI connects to the data layer of that infrastructure through standard industrial protocols and adds a separate intelligence process on top.
Think of it as the analytical layer your SCADA system never had. The SCADA collects and monitors. ScadaLogs AI interprets and advises.
What ScadaLogs AI connects to
- OPC UA the primary integration pathway for modern SCADA systems
- Modbus TCP/RTU for legacy PLCs and field devices
- Native drivers for major PLC manufacturers
- SCADA historian integration (OSIsoft PI, Wonderware, GE Proficy, and others)
- API connectors for cloud-hosted SCADA platforms
From Day One to Go-Live
Week 1 Connect
Our engineering team reviews your SCADA architecture, confirms data source compatibility, and establishes integration connections. Standard configurations take two to five days.
Wk 1–2 Baseline
ScadaLogs AI begins reading your operational data and building a baseline model what normal looks like, your typical alarm patterns, and which equipment signals are available for condition monitoring.
Wk 2–4 Calibrate
The models calibrate to your facility. Alarm groupings are validated by your operations team. Predictive thresholds are set from your equipment specs and historical maintenance records.
Wk 4–5 Onboard
Your team is trained on the ScadaLogs AI interface what each alert means, how to act on a maintenance directive, and how to use the decision support HMI alongside their existing SCADA screens.
Wk 5+ Live
ScadaLogs AI is running live. Alarm rationalization, predictive maintenance, and process optimisation are all active. The models continue to learn and improve over time.
Deployment Options
Cloud-Hosted
Operates in a secure cloud environment with encrypted data transmission from your facility. Suitable for utilities with standard connectivity and no data residency restrictions.
On-Premise
For utilities in air-gapped environments or with strict data residency requirements, the Enterprise plan includes a fully on-premise deployment option.
Hybrid
Core intelligence runs on-premise at each facility; centralised dashboards and cross-facility reporting sync to a secure cloud environment. Common for multi-site utility authorities.
What Does Not Change
When You Deploy
Your existing SCADA configuration does not change. Your operators' primary workflow does not change. Your existing HMI screens do not change. ScadaLogs AI adds a decision layer it does not alter the operational infrastructure your team has built its processes around. The practical difference is what your operators see alongside their existing screens: a live, prioritised intelligence feed that tells them what the data actually means.
Evaluating Integration Feasibility?
For engineering and SCADA teams, a technical demo can walk through your specific infrastructure configuration and confirm the integration pathway before any purchasing decision.
