Introduction to the Module SDK

Get an introduction to the extensible features of Ignition and to getting started with the Module SDK. This session provides a general overview of the subject, so extensive technical knowledge is not necessary.

Limitless Scalability: Building Elastic Architectures

Architecting systems that are built to grow can be a challenge, and in today’s quickly-changing world it’s more important than ever for industrial organizations to be able to effortlessly scale to fit their customer’s needs. Fortunately, Ignition takes the growing pains out of scaling your architecture. Join an Ignition architecture expert from Inductive Automation for an informative discussion about how to use powerful features like distributed services and cloud hosting to create architectures that offer virtually limitless ways to easily scale your Ignition system.

Blockchain-Based Operator Logs and Ignition Auditing

Most automated processes require tracking of system status and performance, including operator responses to process upsets. Typically, this is accomplished using a physical notebook, as it is relatively tamper-proof. Using Ignition’s built-in Audit Log, this process can be done digitally, but it’s possible to alter and tamper with after data has been entered. In order to prevent tampering of the digital operator log, Corso Systems has built a tool using blockchain technology to ensure records are not changed, including distributed validation to ensure data integrity and limit the impact of bad actors trying to interfere with the system. This session will cover the implementation and methodology of this technology, real-world use cases, and show how this tool helps keep Ignition at the forefront of digital operations.
