Siemens Desigo CC Driver for Tridium Niagara

The Desigo CC driver for Tridium Niagara enables reliable integration between Siemens’ building management platform and the Niagara framework. It uses the Northbound Open RESTful Integration Service (NORIS) exposed by Desigo CC to allow seamless exchange of live data, event streams, and control commands via secure web protocols. The driver supports multi-object request-response, ensuring fast and efficient communication for complex, multi-discipline environments.

The integration leverages secure HTTP communication and supports token-based OAuth 2.0 authentication, ensuring safe and standards-compliant access and enabling responsive and event-driven automation workflows in Niagara.

Desigo CC objects and properties—spanning disciplines such as HVAC, lighting, security, and fire safety—are exposed to Niagara as standard points. This simplifies the integration of complex, distributed Desigo infrastructures into a unified Niagara front-end. Features like dynamic discovery, multi-object read/write, bulk command execution, and access rights handling reduce engineering effort and improve maintainability.

The driver supports modern deployment scenarios, including cloud-hosted Niagara instances interfacing with on-prem Desigo systems through secure proxies. It enables system integrators and operators to centralize operations, reduce silos, and improve operational insight without replacing existing infrastructure.

Desigo CC, developed by Siemens, is a comprehensive and scalable building management platform that consolidates HVAC, lighting, safety, and energy systems into a unified interface. Built to serve mission-critical facilities, such as large-scale campuses, airports, hospitals, it offers deep integration capabilities, visual supervision, and rich data services.

Tridium’s Niagara Framework is a flexible, open platform for integrating, visualizing, and managing building automation systems. Its protocol-neutral design allows seamless interaction with legacy and modern devices across vendors. Niagara’s tools for real-time control, analytics, and web-based visualization make it a cornerstone for smart building implementations. This driver extends Niagara’s reach by enabling direct communication with Desigo CC, expanding its capabilities in enterprise-scale integration.
