SIMATIC Virtualization as a ServiceUnrestricted Siemens 2021
Innovative concepts for the optimized maintenanceand modernization of PC-based control systems are keyOperative challenges Apart from the preventive maintenance of the hardware platform, it is particularlythe maintenance and care of the installed software components which is decisivefor the lifecycle costs of a PC-based control system.Cut lifecycle costs The integration of IT-technologies into the industrial environment enablesinnovative concepts here as well, such as system virtualization.Simplify complex system updatesand system expansionsFast, reliable service and supportInnovative concepts like virtualization can reduce lifecyclecosts and simplify modernization of PC-based controlsystems.Page 2Unrestricted Siemens 2021
Future-proof modernization of process control systemswith SIMATIC Virtualization as a ServiceSolutionSIMATIC Virtualization as a Service is a future-oriented virtualization technology includingsuitable software and hardware components as well as services throughout the entire lifecycle.Everything from a single source – with allcomponents working together in harmony.How does it work? Module Configured Host:Server hardware and management console Module Pre-installed Hypervisor:Installation of the virtualization layer Module Virtual Machines:Delivery of a virtual machine ready for operation Modul Service Package:Includes pre-installation and configuration of thesystem, Technical Support, system documentationand After-Sales-ServicePage 3Unrestricted Siemens 2021
SIMATIC Virtualization as a ServiceWhat does virtualization mean?Through virtualization,the operating systemand the user softwareof a computer aredecoupled from itshardware.The hypervisorhandles the dynamicdistribution of thehardware resourcesto the virtualmachines.Page 4Unrestricted Siemens 2021The operatingsystem and theuser software aremade available inform of a virtualmachine (VM).The virtualmachines areaccessed throughenergy- and costefficient Thin Clients.A hypervisor is installedas an additionalsoftware layer on ahigh performanceserver; it allows for theintegration of severalvirtual machines ononly one hardware.SIMATICVirtualization as aService offers thistechnology as aready-to-runcomplete systemincludingconfiguration andsystem support.

SIMATIC Virtualization as a ServiceModule “Pre-installed Hypervisor”On the basis of the system platform, a virtualization layer is installed thathandles the recource distribution of the physical hardware to the virtualmachines. VMware is used as the virualization software.

SIMATIC Virtualization as a ServiceModule “Pre-installed Hypervisor” – (v)SAN ClusterThe (v)SAN cluster is a prerequisite for the „High Availability“ feature of theVMware. This feature can be used with our SIMATIC Virtualization as a Service(SIVaaS) for PCS 7 / WinCC clients and for the PCS 7 engineering station.„High Availability“ features high availibility of the virtual machines and therebyof the PCS 7 and WinCC applications.In case of a failure on a physical server, the affected virtual machines will beautomatically started on other productive servers with free capacities.There are two options available: vSAN or SAN clusterPage 8Unrestricted Siemens 2021

Around 2,000 differentchemical products are manufactured at the CHEMPARK in Dormagen. Production focuses onthe development and manufacture of crop protection products, polymers, plastics and rubber.CustomerobjectivesAs a result of the modernization, several production plants are to meet the latest requirementsof a digital company. All necessary supplies and services are to be designed, offered,implemented and provided with the associated services from a single source.SiemenssolutionSeven production plants were each equipped with an Industrial Automation DataCenteras part of the modernization Through intensive cooperation between Siemens and Bayer CropScience AG, therequirements with regard to the special features of production, the network architecture andthe existing automation systems were determined and measures for conversion andpreparation were developed. In order to meet the requirements for the availability of the overall system, the systemplatform was designed on the basis of VMware vSAN technology. A security workshop, a factory acceptance test and the implementation of specific customerrequirements were successfully implemented within the scope of the project.Customervalue Up to 80% less space required due to a standardized overall system with the aim ofreducing the number of communication interfaces Flexible system expansion through preconfigured and ready-to-use individual components Up to 75% energy savings due to optimized use of the IT resources deployed Essential IT security measures were already implemented upon deliveryReference ID: 22382Page 16Unrestricted Siemens 2021

Security InformationSiemens provides products and solutions with industrial security functions that support the secure operation of plants, systems, machines andnetworks. In order to protect plants, systems, machines and networks against cyber threats, it is necessary to implement – and continuously maintain – aholistic, state-of-the-art industrial security concept. Siemens’ products and solutions constitute one element of such a concept. Customers are responsible for preventing unauthorized access to their plants, systems, machines and networks. Such systems, machines andcomponents should only be connected to an enterprise network or the internet if and to the extent such a connection is necessary and only whenappropriate security measures (e.g. firewalls and/or network segmentation) are in place. For additional information on industrial security measures that may be implemented, please visit �� products and solutions undergo continuous development to make them more secure. Siemens strongly recommends that productupdates are applied as soon as they are available and that the latest product versions are used. Use of product versions that are no longersupported, and failure to apply the latest updates may increase customer’s exposure to cyber threats.
