Industrial Control via Application Containers: Migrating from Bare-Metal to IAAS

arXiv:1908.04465 · doi:10.1109/CloudCom.2019.00021

Abstract

We explore the challenges and opportunities of shifting industrial control software from dedicated hardware to bare-metal servers or cloud computing platforms using off the shelf technologies. In particular, we demonstrate that executing time-critical applications on cloud platforms is viable based on a series of dedicated latency tests targeting relevant real-time configurations.
