AVEVA Historian simplifies the most demanding data reporting and analysis requirements. Historian can be deployed to monitor a single process or an entire facility, storing data locally and aggregating data at the corporate level. Eliminating multiple versions of plant operating data in this way increases productivity, reduces errors, and lowers operating costs. Unlike conventional relational databases that are not well-suited to production environments, Historian handles time-series data, as well as alarm and event data. Unique “history block” technology captures plant data hundreds of times faster than a standard database system and utilizes a fraction of the conventional storage space. Historian will maintain the data integrity needed for the most demanding requirements. AVEVA Historian manages low bandwidth data communications, late-coming information, and even data from systems with mismatched system clocks. Ensuring high-resolution data is captured accurately every time.
