Abstract
A system that routes a signal indicating a physical condition through a facility network from a controller to a communication channel is disclosed. The system routes the first signal through a cloud network from the communication channel to a supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) service. The SCADA service processes the signal to generate a second signal, indicating a control response. The system routes the second signal through the cloud network from the SCADA service to the first communication channel. The system routes the second signal through the facility network from the communication channel to a second controller. The cloud network operates as a separate network from the first facility network.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- routing, through a first facility network, a first signal indicating a first physical condition in a first physical environment from a first controller to a first interface of a first communication channel, wherein the first facility network is local to the first physical environment;
- routing, through a cloud network, the first signal from a second interface of the first communication channel to a supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) service;
- processing, by the SCADA service, the first signal to generate a second signal indicating a control response;
- routing, through the cloud network, the second signal from the SCADA service to the second interface of the first communication channel;
- and
- routing, through the first facility network, the second signal from the first interface of the first communication channel to a second controller, wherein each of the cloud network and the first facility network is a separate network and wherein the method is performed by at least one device including a hardware processor.
One or more non-transitory computer readable media comprising instructions which, when executed by one or more hardware processors, cause performance of operations comprising:
- routing, through a first facility network, a first signal indicating a first physical condition in a first physical environment from a first controller to a first interface of a first communication channel, wherein the first facility network is local to the first physical environment;
- routing, through a cloud network, the first signal from a second interface of the first communication channel to a supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) service;
- processing, by the SCADA service, the first signal to generate a second signal indicating a control response;
- routing, through the cloud network, the second signal from the SCADA service to the second interface of the first communication channel;
- and
- routing, through the first facility network, the second signal from the first interface of the first communication channel to a second controller, wherein each of the cloud network and the first facility network is a separate network.
A system comprising:
- at least one device including a hardware processor;
- the system being configured to perform operations comprising:
- routing, through a first facility network, a first signal indicating a first physical condition in a first physical environment from a first controller to a first interface of a first communication channel, wherein the first facility network is local to the first physical environment;
- routing, through a cloud network, the first signal from a second interface of the first communication channel to a supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) service;
- processing, by the SCADA service, the first signal to generate a second signal indicating a control response;
- routing, through the cloud network, the second signal from the SCADA service to the second interface of the first communication channel;
- and
- routing, through the first facility network, the second signal from the first interface of the first communication channel to a second controller, wherein each of the cloud network and the first facility network is a separate network.
