When you are in the beginning of your engineering path you may come to plant and amaze how systems and configurations behind it are big and complicated.
This also may frustrate you on thoughts how endless is what you need to learn.
But remember, what you see
1. Was build in years
2. Was build by teams or several people
3. Was build by using earlier projects templates
I want to focus on the 3rd part - using templates. No one professional builds things from scratch. When someone builds the logic he uses functional blocks and scripts from other projects. The same is with installation, HMI, even with drawings and documentation.

Trends affect process automation and industrial digitalization in the following:
- Cloud SCADA (SaaS)
- Digital twins and ML in OTS, APM and MES solutions
- AR/VR in HMIs
- Cyber Security (use of advanced logging, monitoring and SOCs in PCN)

SCADA explained
SCADA is a software.
Mostly installed on Windows OS nowadays.
It allows Operator to monitor (read from PLC) and supervisory control the process (write to PLC).
Automatic control is implemented in PLC and not in a SCADA.
Major components of SCADA are:
⁃ Points database (stores cofiguration of plc read/write addresses; ranges; descriptions; alarms setpoints and priorities; history, trend and group configurations; scripting. Databases are offline and online running on SQL or Oracle mostly).
⁃ HMI (Mostly uses HTML technology: DeltaV and Experion)
⁃ Built-in set of drivers to allow communication with PLCs, gateways, etc. such as Modbus. (usually you don't touch drivers and it runs behind the scenes. However, it is possible to write your own C/C++ for proprietary protocols)
