FrameworX Core

FrameworX kernel is designed upon the concepts of Real-Time In-Memory Database and Unified Namespace.

FrameworX is a Unified Automation Platform. Its main components are:

  • FrameworX Core
    • Designer - Unified Configuration using the Four Pillar Methodology. 
    • Runtime - .NET Real-Time database, with Native UNS architecture.
  • Data Sources- Connectivity with 100+ devices and interfaces. 
  • Built-In Features - Industrial and Business Operations modules 
  • Client Technologies - Design once, run everywhere.

Create, Design and Run your Solutions

 FrameworX manages the complete Solution Lifecycle, from development through  production using three integrated workspaces:

Solution Center

  • Crente and Manage Solutions
  • Launch point for Designer ↓ or Runtime →

          Runtime

  • Execution environment
  • Multi-Platform
    • Windows
    • MacOS
    • Linux
    • CISCO Routers
    • Containers
  • REST APIs: data-plane on TServer (port 3101+, Bearer-GUID) for tag values, aggregates, alarms; management-plane on TWebServices (port 10108, JWT/OIDC) for Solution Center operations; /health and /ready probes on both surfaces for Kubernetes liveness and readiness.

Designer

Execution Profiles

A single .dbsln solution can run concurrently under multiple Execution Profiles — Development, Production, Validation, and Custom — each on a distinct port and each managed independently. This lets the same configuration carry a live production runtime, a parallel validation pass, and an active development session on the same machine without interference. Profile selection drives the runtime startup row, the port, and the isolation boundary; the underlying solution definition is unchanged.
