The fundamentals of SCADA
Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) is required to control activities in dams, power stations, oil refineries, large server control services, and so on.
SCADA systems are built for highly specific tasks, such as controlling the level of dispatched water, controlling the gas lines, controlling the electricity power grid to control power in a particular city, and various other operations.
The fundamentals of ICS and its components
SCADA systems are Industrial Control System (ICS) systems, which are used in critical environments or where life is at stake, if anything goes wrong. ICS are the systems that are used in large industries, where they are responsible for controlling various processes, such as mixing two chemicals in a definite ratio, inserting carbon dioxide in a particular environment, putting the proper amount of water in the boiler, and so on.
The components of such SCADA systems are as follows:
