Hi,
Could you tell me where I can find general information about Intellectual Property, Patents, Copyright, Industrial Secret within Predix?
What does Predix do in each topic that I metioned?
Thanks in advance.

This is the developer forum, so I'm not sure you'll get the best answer here and would recommend working with a legal team on matters related to IP.
I'm not sure if your interest is in your own IP or the IP of GE Digital but Predix potentially is a consumer of other IP or open-source software under a license that grants rights to it's use. The Predix Platform and source code is proprietary, but there are a few exceptions such as ACS which have been released as open-source under an Apache 2 license and contributions made to Cloud Foundry which is an open-source project.
If you are concerned about your own IP, you can find out a few details about SLAs here: http://predix.com/sla and any terms and conditions for your account.
I am not a lawyer, but I hope that helps.
Thank you,
That I really want to know is, for example, If I develop an application which uses analytics, Predix machine, timeSeries, UAA, etcetera... Can I patent my app? What I need to do in order to achieve this? It would be possible to do that?
Regards.
