Abstract: A server, control circuit, or method for controlling an OPC UA Server includes receiving a request for data from an OPC UA Client, determining whether the request and/or the data requires a slow data access or a fast data access by a hardware implemented control circuit of the OPC UA Server; obtaining first data from a memory unit of the OPC UA Server when the request and/or the data requires the slow data access; obtaining second data from an second address space of the control circuit when the request and/or the data requires the fast data access; and sending the obtained first or second data to the OPC UA Client.
