Cirrus Link Solutions
"Unlock the power of OT data with MQTT and Sparkplug"
Co-inventors of MQTT and Sparkplug providing industrial IoT software, Ignition modules, and MQTT brokers to connect OT data from plant floor to cloud.
Cirrus Link Solutions is a US-based industrial software company founded in 2012, recognized as a co-inventor of the MQTT and Sparkplug protocols that underpin modern industrial IoT and Industry 4.0 architectures. The company provides the data infrastructure that connects operational technology (OT) systems to enterprise IT and cloud platforms using lightweight, open-standard, report-by-exception messaging. Its product portfolio centers on three lines: MQTT modules for Inductive Automation's Ignition platform (the Engine, Distributor, Transmission/Injector, and Recorder modules) that collect and publish real-time OT data; IoT Bridges that automatically structure and deliver contextualized OT data to cloud platforms such as Snowflake, AWS SiteWise, and Azure Digital Twins with no custom code; and the Chariot MQTT Server, a secure, enterprise-grade MQTT broker with native Sparkplug B support built for industrial environments. Cirrus Link's technology enables SCADA modernization, OT-to-cloud connectivity, unified namespace (UNS) architectures, and AI/ML use cases such as predictive maintenance and anomaly detection by delivering self-describing, contextualized data that systems can discover and use without manual integration. The company emphasizes native integration with Ignition, decades of OT experience, Sparkplug B support, and edge-to-cloud design.
Its solutions serve oil and gas, manufacturing, water and wastewater, food and beverage, logistics, power and energy, data centers, healthcare and pharmaceuticals, and automotive and transportation, and are trusted by companies including Georgia-Pacific, Denso, Tyson, and AWS. Cirrus Link offers a network of certified system integrators and technology partners.
