The Tag Read Web Socket node utilizes web sockets so tag value changes get pushed to Node-RED without polling.
The Tag Write node can write to tags in Ignition. This will only work with tags that are configured with write privileges.
The Tag Browse node can browse for tags in Ignition. This allows you to discover tags configured in Ignition.
