Overview

PT Citia Engineering Indonesia held the second session of its Micro-Webinar series on Friday 6 November 2026 at 14.00 WIB. The title was Always-On Terminal: High Availability Server OT pada Terminal Automation System, with the subtitle Triple-Layer Auto Failover: Server, Network & Database.

The session was online, free and short, 15 to 20 minutes. Fadli from Management System Engineering at Citia presented it. The poster addressed maintenance, instrumentation, automation, IT/OT and terminal operations staff, and RSVP ran through siTia on WhatsApp.

The three layers on the agenda

The three layers on the agenda

  • Server

    Failover from the main unit to the standby unit.

  • Network

    Redundancy through backup paths and backup switches.

  • Database

    Replication so transaction data stays intact.

The session opened with the reason behind all three: why the OT server at a terminal has to stay up. In a terminal automation system the servers carry the applications operators use for daily distribution work. Citia's Padalarang TAS lifecycle support, for instance, maintains the TAS server, the FD-Flow PC and the gate interface PC, and makes a database backup on the server during each monthly visit.

Citia has not published a recording or slides of the session yet. The session page, Micro-Webinar #02: Always-On Terminal, will be updated if either becomes available.
