Discover octoplant - the new evolutionary stage in Data Driven Manufacturing

These range from digitalization and Smart Connected Factories to increasing product individualization and small batch production to an ever increasing heterogeneity of OT technologies and much more.

The modular software platform offers comprehensive asset and device management as well as backups. Seamless compliance management and reliable threat protection guarantee comprehensive protection for your plant - the optimal combination of OT and IT!

Smooth production, more security & efficiency thanks to data backups and versioning of production machines across different manufacturers - octoplant.

The European Organization for Nuclear Research uses the system to manage the data of around 500 components, making octoplant one of CERN's standard technologies.

versiondog back up key machine programming and produce intuitive documentation of changes, simplifying maintenance and aiding in plant optimization. Downtime is significantly reduced, due to easy and reliable code management, trouble shooting and disaster recovery.

Advantages, motivations, prospects - Stefan Jesse and Jochen Lang tell you all about the digital platform for automation.

Learn more about automated inventory, risk and vulnerability assessment, and backup and disaster recovery of all your OT assets, for greater cybersecurity.

Among other things, auditors in the food & beverage sector pay high attention to clean documentation of changes. Learn more about audit trails in our short video interview.

In order to guarantee a high-quality product, cybersecurity standards in the F&B industry are becoming increasingly important. In 2014, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) added ISA / IEC 62443 Industrial Automation and Control Systems (IACS) to help food and beverage manufacturers better protect themselves from cyber-attacks.

The food industry is under strict observation by consumers and authorities alike. The responsibility for a high-quality and safe product rests with the manufacturer, FDA and GMP tell them how to. Version control and change management can help automated F&B industries to meets the legal requirements.

Food manufacturers use quality management systems to identify a Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) in addition to the standard regulations outlined by the FDA and GMP. Learn more about Quality Management with HACCP and Batch Reporting in our short video interview.

Never before has it been so easy to integrate or update your assets in versiondog. Whether you are just beginning to use versiondog, or you are already an advanced user, we guarantee that you will benefit from our new feature, the Easy Asset Integrator, and save time when creating or updating your assets.

Are you using Siemens TIA Portal? If so, versiondog can simplify your workload with automatic backups, graphic smart compares, and efficient program block management.

Give your OT the power booster it needs to the future! Increase the performance and security of your automation components based on tangible key figures and recommendations.

Many automation programs are changed as adjustments to variables and logic are needed to continue smooth operation, but these changes also put the plant at risk. What happens if someone makes a change to a program that results in undesired performance, or corrupts the program due to inadvertent changes? If there is no backup the result is costly downtime and product errors.

This video addresses a critical aspect of cyber security not addressed by data access & network monitoring applications: The Intellectual Property in your automation device programs. It shows how a sound approach to securing program device data includes three key areas: preparation, detection and recovery and how that can be achieved.

The AutoSave Portal is a decision support dashboard that enables users to view all AutoSave program change management activity in the plant including program activity, success or failure of device program compare results, program comparison details, and much more. This vital plant information is accessed from a single web interface that can run on workstations, laptops and mobile devices.

See how AutoSave captures and stores all automation program changes as they are made so that the correct program can be accessed quickly and correctly for rapid recovery from failures. Also demonstrated is AutoSave’s ability to compare programs and identify differences, protecting users and assets. These are just a couple of the features available with AutoSave.

AutoSave for System Platform (A4SP) is an AVEVA Endorsed partner product providing object-level change management for AVEVA System Platform to protect against unexpected change issues that can lead to downtime and product loss. This demonstration shows the latest version of A4SP (version 5.0) supporting AVEVA System Platform 2020.
