SIMATIC WinCC Open Architecture (WinCC OA) is a SCADA system from Siemens for large-scale and distributed applications such as infrastructure, energy, and transportation. It provides process visualization, alarming, archiving, and control across many connected devices and sites.

Some editions of Siemens WinCC OA expose an API, but it is often limited, legacy, or inconsistent between versions, and many on-prem deployments have no usable API at all. Makini gives you one modern REST API for Siemens WinCC OA that lets you read and write Siemens WinCC OA data, even for legacy or on-prem instances. You build against Makini once instead of integrating with Siemens WinCC OA directly.
You integrate Siemens WinCC OA through Makini's Unified API. Authenticate once and Makini normalizes Siemens WinCC OA data into a single consistent schema you can read from and write to inside your product. The same connection reaches Siemens WinCC OA plus 2,000+ other ERP, WMS and CMMS systems, so you build one integration instead of one per system.
Through Makini you can read and write Siemens WinCC OA's core records as normalized, standardized resources, in both directions: pull data out of Siemens WinCC OA and push updates back in. Every field is mapped to a consistent Makini schema, so you work with the same object model across Siemens WinCC OA and every other connected system.
Days, not quarters. Because Makini already builds and maintains the Siemens WinCC OA connector, you do not reverse-engineer the integration yourself: you authenticate and start reading and writing Siemens WinCC OA data through the Unified API, typically within a few days. A Siemens WinCC OA integration built in-house usually takes months plus ongoing maintenance.
Yes. Makini connects to Siemens WinCC OA over encrypted connections on SOC 2 Type II certified infrastructure, and handles Siemens WinCC OA credentials for you so they are never exposed to your app. You authenticate once, and access runs through Makini's managed, auditable layer. The same security model applies across Siemens WinCC OA and every other connected system.
Makini owns the maintenance. When Siemens WinCC OA changes its API, versions, or endpoints, Makini updates the connector, and your integration keeps working with no changes on your side. You get a stable Unified API with webhooks, and Siemens WinCC OA upkeep stays off your roadmap.
