Observatory software system is a critical component of modern astronomical facilities, ranking just below telescopes and instruments in importance. The level of automation achieved through software development directly influences the scientific productivity of an observatory by affecting the quality and usability of collected data. The presentation focuses on the software system developed for the Rolf Chini Cerro Murphy Observatory (OCM), located in the Chilean Atacama Desert. Originally established as a collaboration between the Catholic University of the North (UCN) and Ruhr University Bochum (RUB), the observatory later integrated into the Araucaria Project and the Nicolaus Copernicus Astronomical Center of the Polish Academy of Sciences (CAMK) institution. The modern phase of the observatory, beginning in 2020, involved substantial upgrades to telescopes, instruments, and infrastructure, where shortly will operates all of planned five telescopes, ranging from 0.6 m to 2.5 m in diameter. The observatory software was developed to integrate systems with new solutions, improve reliability, and bring control systems up to state-of-the-art standards. Increased automation and computerization, including the use of ML and AI methods, were implemented to address the objectives of the modern observatory systems, resulting flexible platform that supports both current and future scientific goals of the OCM, CAMK and Araucaria group.
