History
Version 1.0 of FactorySQL and FactoryPMI were released in 2003.
In 2010, Inductive Automation updated FactorySQL and FactoryPMI with Ignition. The platform created a central user interface for both FactorySQL and FactoryPMI. Ignition has a modular architecture. Ignition is the platform, and FactorySQL and FactoryPMI became modules within that platform. FactorySQL has been renamed to Ignition SQL Bridge Module, and FactoryPMI has been renamed to Ignition Vision Module. Two other modules are also available: the Ignition Reporting Module, and the Ignition OPC-UA Module. The OPC-UA module can also be downloaded for free, and used as a stand-alone OPC-UA server.
