Abstract
Virtualization of manufacturing execution system (vMES) workloads offers a set of design and operational advantages to enterprises, the most visible being improved resource utilization and flexibility of the overall solution. This paper explores redundancy, as another important operational advantage introduced by the use of private clouds for MES virtualization. The paper briefly presents the main redundancy requirements for the workloads identified in ISA-95.03 based solutions and discusses in detail the strategies to assure redundancy of these workloads both individually and at solution level. A pilot implementation of these strategies using a private cloud system and CoBASA-type multi-agent MES architecture as examples is described and results are discussed.
