What is the Github Integration in SDA?

SDA's GitHub Integration connects industrial automation projects directly to GitHub repositories, enabling automation engineers to use familiar Git workflows — pull requests, code reviews, branch protection rules — for PLC code and OT assets. This creates a unified codebase across IT and OT, with full traceability and the ability to trigger CI/CD pipelines from automation software changes, just as software developers do with application code.

How does SDA integrate with exhisting IT and OT Infrastructure?

SDA integrates with standard IT tools including Git-based repositories (GitHub, GitLab, Azure DevOps), ticketing systems, and enterprise identity providers (SSO/LDAP). On the OT side, it connects directly to PLCs and engineering stations via vendor-specific protocols, without requiring changes to the production network topology. SDA is typically deployed as a cloud-hosted or on-premise service, depending on customer security requirements.

Does SDA work in an air-gapped or restricted OT networks?

Yes. SDA supports on-premise deployment for environments where OT networks are isolated from the internet or subject to strict security policies, including IEC 62443 and NIS2 compliance requirements. The platform can operate without any outbound internet connection from the OT segment, with the SDA server deployed inside the customer's own infrastructure.
