The Wonderware installed base is our key asset that we will leverage to sell upgrades and up-sell additional software into.
We also have a proven track record of getting customers to upgrade and purchase our new offerings. This gives us confidence in our plan as well as emphasizing the need to continually develop and release new software to keep this growth engine running. That is why continued R&D investments are so critical to our business.

9. Protecting your investment
21-Apr-17
Protecting your investment
Your largest investment is in engineering and customization.
Broken upgrade paths creates costs far beyond the cost of software.
A broken upgrade path creates a barrier for change – the system becomes stale.
The underlying system should enable you to leverage new hardware and software without having to re-create the solution.

10. Wonderware System Platform Benefits
Provide flexible and robust automation solution
Reduce life-cycle cost of ownership
Provide building blocks for plant floor information
Equipment Utilisation
Production information & Reporting
Vertical Integration
Today with the number of software solutions in use in industry TCO (total cost of ownership) is an important factor. This must be considered not only based on the initial license cost but of the duration of the life of the product and includes engineering, upgrades, extensions, etc.
Real-time and historical information is important if we want to fine-tune processes and understand where improvements can be made.
When looking at advanced initiatives like Condition monitoring, MES and MIS the solution success often depends on the availability of plant data and the flexibility of the automation solution.

Production Process
Using Traditional one starts with a project, builds and commissions a application.
Although standard function modules existed in the PLC these where not connected to the HMI standard
iii) When the next project starts we are faced with a number of issues;
The software application size was limited
Changes to the application meant downtime and re-commissioning
Code reuse is limited
iv) Traditionally a new application would be developed for each major plant area, with new standards and no way to update the old applications
The result is limited integration to the PLC increasing engineering and commissioning time.
Multiple applications immediately increase cost of ownership
Many users now want to add MIS/MES functionality and find this more challenging than it should be due to the islands of information.

Starting with the development environment the application can scale from 250 I/O to 1M I/O, the complete application and code is stored in a MS SQL database (galaxy repository)
Editing is done via the IDE and this supports multi-user development.
The application is designed and built on the plants physical hierarchy.
Once developed the application is installed (deployed) to run on the appropriate physical hardware and view clients are used as the operator interface.
Redundancy can be added with no engineering (configuration only, tick box).
The process historian is configured automatically as the software is deployed based on the automation standards.

Introduction
Traditional approach versus Wonderware System Platform
Features and Benefits of the Platform
Considerations
Conclusion

29. Strengths of Wonderware System Platform
Scalability
Security
Standards
High Availability
Software Management
The key strengths of ArchestrA can be listed as ……

30. Scalability
1,000,000 I/O
250 I/O
Distributed Multi Server Multi Client
Single Server Multi Client
Application Object Server Only
Distributed Peer to Peer
Integrated Single Node
Have you developed an application-maybe compressor monitoring, de-liquefaction, or other production optimization-that you would like to deploy at multiple field locations featuring multiple platforms such as RTUs, PLCs or DCS that all have their own programming languages and platforms? You might consider developing that code within an application template that is instantiated as an object instance that runs in a single small I/O count license application server node. The result is a common piece of code that can be centrally maintained regardless of the underlying control platform.
From that small example Wonderware applications can scale to a single node solution which combines data access, visualization, and history all the way to extremely large distributed peer-to-peer systems featuring a single name space.
Application can grow as requirements change
I/O measured as external I/O only (excludes internal)

31. Strengths of ArchestrA
Scalability
Security
Standards
High Availability
Software Management
Security becomes vital especially when the application stretches across plant areas.
ArchestrA security model is based on either the Microsoft domain or it’s own security model.
This influences the ability to write values to the PLC or access to development code.

32. Security Either dedicated or can use Microsoft Domain security
Benefits
New staff added to “Operator” group get the right authority
When staff leave and are removed from the domain they are no longer able to access the automation application
Simplifies management of user logons
One password

33. Strengths of ArchestrA
Scalability
Security
Standards
High Availability
Software Management
Standards are the basis for engineering re-use, consistency across applications and impact on the TCO (total cost of ownership).

34. Equipment centric objects: Powerful and multi-faceted
Inputs/Outputs
Graphic symbols
The basis of building application standards is to be able to capture as much engineering intellectual property (IP) into reusable objects before building the application.
The description “object” is important and is derived from the concept of “object orientated” development.
Traditional SCADA is configured via functional group such as tags lists describing the input and outputs, individual graphics for each device.
The object is one place to configure everything the we need to represent the valve.
System Platform promotes engineering re-use through application objects. Application Objects represent physical equipment or logical constructs, such as control loops.
These application objects contain all configuration elements, including I/O definitions, logic and scripting, history configuration, security and access controls, and alarm/event configuration. This approach differs from traditional tag-based approaches which segment all of the configuration information into different databases and require multiple editors to manage.
This self-contained approach dramatically reduces the engineering time associated with the initial creation and maintenance of objects. By keeping all object configuration tightly related and contained within the object itself, there is no need to use multiple editors to make sure that the alarming, I/O definitions, scripting, history, and security are consistent for an object.

$Valve-2Way
$Valve-3Way
$Control Module
This is the single most important aspect to understand when switching to work with an object orientated development environment and the most powerful capability.
Inheritance is what is important because this is what allows a template to be truly used as a standard.
This means configure once and all instances are updated, in a tag based system each instance must be configured (huge time saver).

Redundant System
Redundant servers maintain synchronized data through dedicated network.
If the primary server is lost the backup server will take over where the primary left off. The switch is transparent to the clients.
