Add OPC/UA pub/sub to the opc/UA agent

We should be able to connect the opc-ua agent to the OPC UA standard and the the whole integration between devices should work out of te box.

So publishing information from the device should automatically be picked up by c8y.

    Dear Tom, thanks a lot for raising this idea. Indeed with Cumulocity IoT, we do have an OPC UA integration that allows to integrate any OPC UA device without coding. The only thing that needs to be configured via the UI is which data to integrate with Cumulocity IoT and how to map the OPC UA data model to the Cumulocity IoT data model. More information you can find here: https://cumulocity.com/guides/protocol-integration/opcua/

    However, indeed we currently do not support pub/sub as we have not seen a wide adoption so far. Could you share a few more details on devices that you have worked with supporting pub/sub and the related use-cases?

    Many thanks!
