Systems and methods for software license metering via crypto-based telemetry

A non-transitory computer readable medium stores instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to receive telemetry data representing usage of one or more software assets by one or more industrial automation devices within an industrial automation system operated by an enterpr...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A non-transitory computer readable medium stores instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to receive telemetry data representing usage of one or more software assets by one or more industrial automation devices within an industrial automation system operated by an enterprise, reference a local blockchain that is a private extension of a global decentralized blockchain to determine one or more licenses associated with the one or more software assets, determine one or more usage parameters for the one or more software assets based on the telemetry data and the one or more licenses, update the local blockchain and the global decentralized blockchain based on the and the usage parameters, and enable usage of the one or more software assets by the one or more industrial automation devices based on the one or more usage parameters and one or more thresholds defined by the one or more licenses.
