METHOD AND ASSEMBLY FOR MANAGING AUTOMATION PROGRAMS FOR INDUSTRIAL AUTOMATION PLATFORMS

摘要

The invention concerns a process and arrangement for managing an automation program for an industrial automation platform, transferring the automation program to the automation platform and controlling the execution of the automation program on the automation platform. In a first step, the automation program or a reference to this automation program is transferred from a Kubernet master to a virtual cube,in a second step, the transmitted or referenced automation program is transferred to the industrial automation platform through a provider interface of the virtual cube, and in a third step, the implementation of the transferred automation programme on the industrial automation platform is controlled, transferring control orders to the industrial automation platform through the provider interface and receiving and processing validation messages from the industrial automation platform or to a control body, in particular the Kubernete Master. This procedure makes it possible to:To manage, distribute and run automation programs using the means of container orchestration systems.
