Chapter 222. OPC UA Server Component

Available as of Camel version 2.19

The Milo Server component provides an OPC UA server using the Eclipse Milo™ implementation.

Java 8: This component requires Java 8 at runtime.

Maven users will need to add the following dependency to their pom.xml for this component:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.camel</groupId>
    <artifactId>camel-milo</artifactId>
    <version>x.x.x</version>
    <!-- use the same version as your Camel core version -->
</dependency>

Messages sent to the endpoint from Camel will be available from the OPC UA server to OPC UA Clients. Value write requests from OPC UA Client will trigger messages which are sent into Apache Camel.

The OPC UA Server component supports 20 options, which are listed below.
