  Introduction In modern industrial automation and process control, the term SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) is quite commonly used everywhere. However, in recent years, it has become trendy to call SCADA “outdated” or “obsolete.” In reality, SCADA is not disappearing — it’s evolving. The fundamental concept of SCADA — supervising processes, acquiring data, and providing actionable control — remains as essential as ever. What’s changing is the architecture , not the idea. The rise of Web-SCADA and Cloud SCADA represents an architectural upgrade, not a replacement. SCADA continues to form the backbone of industrial automation, and will continue to do so, even as it embraces modern connectivity, scalability, and cloud-native paradigms. In this article, we compare these types, highlight their applications, and show how Dicot’s offerings (Vision S and Vision Web) map into this evolving landscape  What is “Classic” SCADA?
