Cplane.ai and ExxonMobil recently completed a pilot project showing how orchestration could simplify the deployment of a complex, multi-vendor system. This was actually a test of both Orchestration and the Open Process Automation (OPA) Forum's work.

John Casey of Cplane.ai joined Dale Peterson on the show to explain exactly what the pilot project did and how orchestration could be useful in the Operation and Evolve phases of a ICS lifecycle. Orchestration is common in the enterprise, particularly in large telecom, and new to the ICS world.

John helps Dale grapple with the concept, and there is a bit at the end about the industrial edge.
