Plugin Management

AVEVA Information Standards Manager is built upon the idea of an inner core product and additional surrounding layers of functionality provided by Extensions and Plugins. This section is going to look at the future of the plugin functionality.

When ISM was only being designed as an on-premises product, it was expected that plugins could be created by consuming applications, rather than all plugins being supported by the ISM Product team, and Customers would be able to write their own Plugins as needed, which would greatly improve the configurability of ISM and enable Class Library to drive product configuration without needing to change the core functionality which defines Class library without the concept of product.

One of the advantages of this approach was that customers would only need to use the plugins that they required, whereas in our cloud implementation; as all the plugins are in the single multi-tenant version; all customers have access to every plugin , whether they want them or not, and we are not able to restrict access to specific plugins on a commercial basis.

Currently we have Plugins to manage:

  1. Import of formats into ISM

  2. Validating Class Libraries

  3. Exporting class Libraries in various formats (e.g. Permissible Grid)

We should implement a process where we are able to restrict, or grant, access to plugins and APIs at the account level
