Historian Connections

External historian diagram

Historians excel at capturing real-time industrial process changes at massive transaction levels. A historian is a temporal database, stored in a flat-file which provides time-based querying and trend analysis capabilities with minimal resource consumption. This often makes it the superior option for data logging over a relational database, which may offer familiarity but struggle with high-frequency, time-sensitive data capture and processing.  

Store and retrieve your data in a compact, easily accessible format. Analyze or display it using any of the historian’s analytical, reporting, or graphing tools, as well as DataHub WebView and OPC UA HDA clients.
