Software Defined Automation reposted this
The future of automation engineering is here, and it’s all about industrial DevOps. Traditional methods of programming industrial systems like PLCs and robots often lag behind the latest software development best practices—but not anymore. Our latest whitepaper, created in partnership with Software Defined Automation, dives into end-to-end DevOps and how, from coding to commissioning, this methodology gives automation engineers tools to simplify processes and boost operational efficiency.
