Frost Radar(TM) : 산업 커넥티비티 소프트웨어(2026년)

As manufacturers and industrial operators try to make operational data more accessible, interoperable, secure, and usable across enterprise environments, organizations are investing in industrial connectivity software that can connect heterogeneous OT assets, bridge legacy protocols, support edge-to-cloud data flows, and enable scalable industrial data architectures without disrupting critical operations. The market is evolving beyond basic protocol conversion as solutions support data operations, semantic interoperability, MQTT/Sparkplug architectures, Unified Namespace enablement, secure data movement, and AI-ready OT data pipelines. While brownfield modernization remains a major driver, greenfield projects are also creating demand for standardized connectivity and data architectures from the start. This Frost Radar™ analyzes the competitive landscape of the global industrial connectivity software market, assessing leading participants based on their growth performance, innovation capabilities, strategic positioning, technology differentiation, and ability to support the next phase of industrial data infrastructure. Frost & Sullivan analyzes numerous companies in an industry. Those selected for further analysis based on their leadership or other distinctions are benchmarked across 10 Growth and Innovation criteria to reveal their position on the Frost Radar™. The publication presents competitive profiles of each company on the Frost Radar™ considering their strengths and the opportunities that best fit those strengths.
