industries. whereas SCADA i.e Supervisiory Control And Data
Acquisition. It is used for interfacing Purpose and
supervisiory.

Answer / apoorva landge

And also DCS has a great storage capacity( memory) as compare to PLC and PLC has the best programming system.Therefore in most of the industries DCS and PLC is interfaced to get better results.. SCADA on the other hand is used when the control room is far away from the field. it is used to communicate at a long distance and on big scales
