Browser-based Engineering
Enable secure and maintenance-free IDE access from anywhere.
If you have a heterogenous PLC landscape in your production environment, you need to manage the all the IDE versions and stay on top of all the updates and patches as well as the devices they run on.
Using those IDEs is not any easier. Traditionally, you need automation engineers on-site to make code changes, which can be inconvenient, create long wait times for IDE-specific experts, and increase costs. While they are there, they often need to run around the floor with a designated laptop updating each system individually.
Software Defined Automation’s Browser-based Engineering is an IDE-as-a-Service (IDEaaS) that enables your automation engineers to securely access any IDE from any browser and internet connection. With the full capabilities of the latest vendor specific IDE version at their fingertips, they can see what’s going on in the devices to diagnose and fix problems remotely, speeding the time to resolution. And it allows them to provide multi-site coverage near instantaneously, no matter where they are.
Securely Work From Anywhere
SDA provides remote access without compromising security. All connections are implemented through a secure VPN, and every session starts up a fresh copy of the respective IDE version, which is then discarded upon termination.
