In phase 1, we are laying the foundations for a platform that integrators can use to implement automation projects faster, operate them securely and continue them cleanly. The focus is on reusability, community and resilient security.

Marketplace for logic blocks
The VION Marketplace will be the central library for tested logic blocks and modules from typical project scenarios. Instead of starting each project from scratch, integrators can access clearly documented modules. This saves time, reduces error rates and makes complexity easier to plan.

Integrator community
A community is growing around VION that bundles and shares practical knowledge. Best practices, solutions and experiences can be used systematically for faster learning curves and better results in the field.

AI support in the IDE
VION supplements the IDE with AI that does the real work instead of providing a show. Focus: concrete relief for repetitive tasks so that developers have more time for the logic relevant to the content.

Support tools for operations
Targeted support tools create transparency in ongoing projects and keep installed solutions clearly organized. Tools that fit the reality of integrators and reliably support operations.

More programming languages
VION is gradually opening up to additional languages so that integrators can build on existing skills and projects. Integration into established landscapes without artificial breaks.

Security according to clear standards
Security is part of the strategy right from the start. Phase 1 aligns VION with ISO 27001 and IEC 62443 and works consistently towards corresponding certifications as a traceable basis for information and industrial security.

From the platform to the partner ecosystem

In phase 2, the focus is on scaling. VION is opening up to integrators, operators and manufacturers to turn individual projects into a sustainable partner ecosystem. The focus is on expandability, freedom of choice in terms of infrastructure and automation with clear benefits.

Partner program for integrators
VION establishes a structured partner program with clear requirements, transparent services and reliable contacts. Integrators are given a defined role in the ecosystem and are supported in positioning and growth.

Private cloud support
VION supports operations in private cloud environments for companies with high compliance and data sovereignty requirements. Full control over data and operations remains in the existing infrastructure.

AI agent for fast logic block integrations
An AI agent accelerates simple logic block integrations and enables standard scenarios without extensive development work. Specialist teams create initial automations, integrators bring them to production level and scale them.

Support for different gateway topologies
VION supports various gateway topologies for distributed locations, network segmentation and security zones. Integrators adapt the architecture to the reality in the field instead of being forced into a rigid model.

More hardware platforms, also for self-integration
Phase 2 expands the supported hardware platforms, from the data center to close to the machine. Documented interfaces and clear procedures enable integrators and manufacturers to integrate additional platforms themselves in future.

Expandable widget library in the same style
The widget library can be extended in the same style. Integrators can create their own widgets that fit neatly into dashboards, both visually and functionally, so that specific requirements can be mapped without a break in style.

Phase 2 makes VION a shared space for integrators, manufacturers and operators to create scalable solutions for industry, infrastructure and energy.
