UniversalAutomation promotes portability and reusability of hardware-independent software components that can be plugged together to build applications that are distributed to the hardware architecture of choice, as defined by the user. Of course, it means that control system technology suppliers would have to adopt the shared-source approach (it is not open source, it is shared). Suppliers add the runtime software to their hardware, to open it up to application portability.
"We are trying to break hardware and software free [of each other] to give flexibility and an advantage to the customer," said
In the spirit of collaboration, Babineau also mentioned Schneider Electric Exchange, where partners and customers can come together to solve problems and participate in a technology offering while protecting IP. To that end, the digital marketplace enables third parties can buy, sell, and promote products compatible with its EcoStruxure open, interoperable IoT-enabled system architecture and ecosystem of experts.
"We believe in openness, collaboration and co-inovation. It will happen no matter what we do so we are not fighting it, we are embracing," Babineau said.

The offering addresses issues associated with the digital transformation, as more and more industrial enterprises are connecting previously isolated operational technology (OT) to corporate IT networks, while also introducing new IoT and industrial IoT assets into these converged OT/IT environments. As a result, industrial systems have become more exposed to new kinds of cyber threats with serious implications for physical safety and the environment.
According to the companies, the collaboration between

By combining the performance, security and deployment capabilities of Intel Edge Controls for Industrial (ECI) technology with EcoStruxure Automation Expert, the DCN framework can simplify and speed the development of software defined control systems. Additionally, the DCN will enable EcoStruxure Automation Expert - a software-centric automation system - to scale faster and further in process industries, including energy and chemicals, mining, water/wastewater, pharmaceuticals and hybrid markets.
This DCN development will be based on UniversalAutomation.org, and EcoStruxure Automation Expert represents the first of a new era of automation software based on this shared runtime,
