OPC UA and MTP: How does that fit together?

MTP is not an alternative to OPC UA. It is built on it.
This session explains the relationship between OPC UA and MTP in a clear, engineer‑friendly way. You learn how OPC UA provides the communication and semantic foundation, while MTP defines how process equipment exposes services to orchestration layers.

The presentation also looks beyond process automation, connecting MTP to emerging OPC UA information models, machinery standards and future job management concepts. For engineers working at the IT/OT boundary, this is essential context.

If you want to understand where MTP fits in the broader Industry 4.0 and data architecture landscape—and why semantics matter more than protocols—this talk delivers exactly that.
