Control & Orchestration

Out Of Band Management Out Of Band Management is administrative access to a system through a separate management path that is independent of the primary production traffic path. It preserves control when the main… Operations Over The Air Rekeying Over The Air Rekeying is the remote update of cryptographic keys across a communications link without requiring manual physical replacement. Operations Path Computation Path Computation is the calculation of a route or path through a network based on topology, constraints, metrics, or policy. It determines a feasible forwarding path. Software Path Selection Path selection is the process of evaluating available network paths and choosing the one that best matches policy, performance, or resilience requirements. It may operate continuously or in response to… Concept/Framework Payload Scheduling Payload Scheduling is the planning and sequencing of payload activity, resource use, or service windows over time. It controls when payload functions run. Operations Performance Management The operational practice of continuously monitoring, analyzing, and acting on network and system performance metrics to maintain service quality, identify degradation before it becomes service-affecting, and support capacity planning decisions… Operations Performance Metric A performance metric is a formally defined measurement used to assess the behavior, quality, or effectiveness of a system or process. It specifies what is measured, how it is measured,… Concept/Framework Physical Isolation Physical isolation is the architectural practice of separating systems or zones so that communication or access requires crossing a deliberate physical boundary. It is used to contain risk, protect critical… Concept/Framework Plant-Wide Control Network Plant-Wide Control Network is the communications infrastructure that connects control systems, devices, and operator systems across an entire plant to coordinate control, monitoring, and supervisory functions throughout the facility. Concept/Framework Platform As A Service Platform As A Service is a cloud model that provides an application platform and managed runtime so developers can build, deploy, and run applications without directly managing the underlying infrastructure.
