Wonderware selects Kepware as endorsed partner for expanding device communications offerings

Wonderware selects Kepware as endorsed partner for expanding device communications offerings. They're offering a branded version of KepServer Ex as "Kepware for Wonderware".

This move leads me to wonder if Kepware plans on supporting Archestra or if Wonderware made the intelligent decision of "3rd partnering" OPC connectivity. The latter makes sense since Kepware supports such a wide variety of devices, and, frankly, is so much better at device drivers than Wonderware.

Rockwell did it, why not Wonderware. I'm a fan of collaboration and standardization. Sounds good to me.
