Requirements to be a seller

MindSphere offers a specific MindAccess DevOps Plan. The deployment process splits the developing part from the operating business. The general process includes the following steps:

  • Developer has finished developing the application and hands over to the Operator (Developer Plan). Before Developer hands over the application to Operator, the application validation will be done firstly to fulfill the compliance requirements.

  • Operator receives the application and deploys it with the Operator Cockpit (Operator Plan)

Please refer to image below the process from application development to deployment.
