Moxa 透過開源軟體社群協作開拓工業級應用

Moxa(四零四科技)擁有30多年豐厚的工業聯網經驗,致力促進全球的工業物聯和啟動連網創新。自1987年創立以來,Moxa不斷尋求突破與創新,成為全球第一大串列設備及全球前三大工業通訊設備製造供應商,憑藉在連網基礎解決方案上的獨特優勢,為全球客戶建置可靠的工業網路,讓自動化所需的設備能與系統、製程和工作人員相互連結、溝通和協作,不僅為智慧軌道運輸、智慧電網、智慧型運輸系統、工廠自動化、石油與天然氣、船能運輸等眾多產業提升生產效率與生產力,並在險峻的作業環境和不適合人類到訪之處實現自動化作業所必備的連網需求,為人們成就更安全的工作環境和生活。

Moxa除了自行開發之作業系統之外,更使用Linux開源軟體作為眾多產品的嵌入式平台基底,不斷拓展工業互聯網應用。然而,如何讓開源軟體能夠達到工業級應用所需之可靠度、安全性與長期維護需求,同時滿足開源軟體相關授權規範與開源社群成果共享的之理念,成為Moxa推動工業物聯網的一大挑戰。因此,Moxa加入Linux基金會之Civil Infrastructure Platform (CIP) Project並引用OpenChain Project定義之開源授權規範標準,希望透過社群協作發揮綜效。

  • Civil Infrastructure Platform (CIP)是Linux基金會的其中一項重要專案,主要以工業級嵌入式系統建立Linux共同開源基礎,並應用於眾多城市基礎建設相關系統。除了Moxa之外,CIP成員包括 Siemens、Toshiba、Renesas、Cybertrust、Codethink、Plat’Home,以及Hitachi 等各國企業,並組成了五個工作小組:

    1. Linux Kernel and Realtime Linux Kernel (Chair: Moxa)
    2. Testing (Chair: Renesas)
    3. CIP Core Package (Chair: Toshiba)
    4. Software Update (Chair: Toshiba)
    5. Security (IEC-624443) (Chair: Renesas)
  • OpenChain是Linux基金會另一項重要專案,讓開源軟體在產業供應鏈協作中更容易符合開源授權規範,而且能更一致,並從中讓開源授權合法性變得更可預測,可理解和有效。藉由OpenChain規範可有效管理開源軟體,降低使用開源軟體所衍生之相關管理成本並降低企業營運風險。

開源軟體是全球開源社群工程師協作的成果,Moxa致力參與開源社群協作讓開源軟體符合工業領域之需求,開源軟體不僅能支援工業物聯網的運作,同時也是產業創新的基石。Moxa邀請您一起透過開源軟體協作,推動技術與產業發展,為人類帶來更美好的生活!
