Unfortunately I do not have enough information/knowledge to recommend OPC servers for specific technologies.

I think somebody misunderstood something about Prosys. What I have suggested is that that they have OPC UA *client* toolkit for Java. Therefore it is possible to connect to any compliant OPC UA server to it, including Siemens. They "do not support Siemens", that's right, because the client side is agnostic of the actual technology.

Thanks a lot for the reply.

Can you suggest me which OPC UA server is best for the Siemens S7 300 PLC.

And then the OPC UA client which i will programmed in java on my own.

And i also ask Prosys and they told me that there OPC ua products doesn't support Siemens products, so this option is not available.

With best regards

Saurabh

You need to purchase an OPC UA server for S7. That has nothing to do with programming language.
You then need to develop a custom OPC UA client. If that has to be in Java, you can use open source Java OPC UA stack (Google for it; the "main" one from OPC Foundation is on Github), or commercial toolkit (hint: Prosys).

Our company has OPC UA client toolkits but they are mainly for .NET and COM. In theory they could be used from Java with some kind of wrapper, but we cannot help with that, and you will probably be better off using a library that's written in Java from scratch.

Best regards
