Article: Unified Namespace and Data Management
Unified Namespace emerges as a critical component for this type of seamless integration. Since it was first created in 2005 by Walker Reynolds, Unified Namespace (UNS) is a term that has gained traction among controls engineers and enterprise solution architects. UNS is a model, rather than a software, for how to structure, organize and access data across an entire enterprise.
