As of 2025, GE Digital (now part of Emerson Electric after the 2024 acquisition) supports CIMPLICITY up to version 2024. If you are still on 8.5, you face several risks:
For continuous runtime performance, the system supports dual-server redundancy configurations:
CIMPLICITY 8.5 introduced refined redundancy options. Users could configure a primary and secondary server pair that sync via a heartbeat. If the primary fails, the secondary takes over without losing alarm states or historical data points. This was critical for 24/7 operations like chemical plants where downtime costs exceed $1M per hour.
Tight integration with Proficy Historian enables robust time-series data storage and analytics, crucial for regulatory compliance and performance monitoring. 3. Object-Oriented Modeling
If you are preparing to modernize your infrastructure, check the official GE Vernova HMI/SCADA Hub to discover how version 8.5 transitions into modern, cloud-connected interfaces like Proficy Operations Hub.
Furthermore, the air-gapped nature of critical infrastructure (power plants, pipelines) means that the lack of modern cybersecurity patches is less critical when the system is entirely isolated from the internet.
Looking for CIMPLICITY 8.5 support, legacy licenses, or migration services? Consult a certified GE Proficy partner before attempting a DIY upgrade to avoid production downtime.
Administrators can tightly define project privileges. Security profiles restrict setpoint changes, alarm acknowledgments, and graphic edits to verified, authenticated user classes. Server Redundancy Options
