Software Defined Automation is hosting the Software Defined Factory at BMW Welt in Munich on September 29, featuring 120 seats with operators first.

Software Defined Automation (SDA) is the Industrial DevOps platform for automation engineers working in OT and PLC environments. We give manufacturing and process industries a single platform to version, automate, and govern all PLC and controller code across multi-vendor, brownfield installations — no rip-and-replace required. What engineers use SDA for: - Automated PLC backup & restore across Siemens, Rockwell, Beckhoff, and 30+ other vendors - Version control and change tracking for OT assets - CI/CD pipelines for industrial automation code - NIS2, NIST, IEC 62443, SOC2 and ISO 27001 compliance documentation - AI-powered insights on plant-wide automation code SDA integrates into existing OT infrastructure and scales from a single plant to global multi-site rollouts. Customers include manufacturers in automotive, pharma, food & beverage, and logistics — among them Henkel, Continental, and Boehringer Ingelheim. Headquartered in Boston, MA, with a European office in Munich, Germany. Trusted by automation teams across North America, the DACH region, and beyond. The factory is code.
