OPC and its new version OPC-UA can now be implemented in all layers from sensors to servers and enterprise applications. So can it replace protocol like DNP3 for telemetry and SCADA applications? OPC has history access, events, different type variables, objects, methods, and even redundancy. So what DNP3 is doing OPC can't do?
