Smarter Automation with Version Control
The biggest challenge in PLC programming isn’t bad code—it’s unmanaged change. Even small adjustments, like shifting a sensor’s position or tweaking a heat threshold, can introduce risk if they’re not properly tracked.
Too often, version control is handled manually—by renaming files, saving them to shared drives, and hoping for consistency. It’s a process ripe for human error, where updates get lost, changes go undocumented, and critical knowledge disappears when programmers take time off or move on. While factories have mastered automating their production lines, PLC code management has lagged behind. That’s where Software Defined Automation’s Version Control comes in. It automates PLC code versioning, so your engineers can focus on building better logic instead of managing files.
With SDA Version Control, the latest code is always accessible, every change is tracked, and your team gains a complete, auditable history—keeping your automation both fast-moving and secure.

Engineer shortages. Downtime. Fragmented systems. Here’s the fix.
Our latest 20256 Industrial Automation Survey – based on responses from 226 U.S. senior automation managers—reveals the current state of OT/IT convergence, fragmented backups, version control gaps, and the path forward with software-defined automation and Industrial DevOps.
Key findings you’ll want to know:
- 93% of manufacturers expanding automation, yet 61% struggle with engineer shortages and turnover.
- Software updates cause over half of unplanned downtime—far outpacing hardware failures.
- Actionable strategies for secure backups, fast recovery, secure access, and AI-assisted code documentation to increase productivity without more headcount.
