Features
Optimized and proven for industry
In industrial operations, critical assets with intermittent connectivity generate vast volumes of high-fidelity data. AVEVA PI System solutions overcome the challenges of industrial data management to provide highly reliable collection, contextualization, storage, and visualization, enabling users in operations and beyond to make data- driven decisions.
Vendor-neutral data collection
AVEVA offers hundreds of data connectivity options for nearly all industry and vendor-specific protocols. Automatically capture high-volume data streams in real-time from on-premises control systems, remote and mobile assets, sensors, IIoT devices and gateways, and almost anything that generates operations data.
Data integrity and reliability
Maintaining safe, continuous operations requires clean, reliable data. To ensure critical data is not dropped during a network disruption, AVEVA PI System data collection options include data buffering. You can also configure your data management solution for high availability, automatic failover and auto-discovery of new data sources.
Self-service data access and visualization
Configure reusable asset models, events and analytics based on multiple data streams and conditions without programming. Use integrated, self-service visualization tools that make it easy for users in operations or other functions to identify, access and use the data they need. Build web and mobile accessible data displays.
Edge to cloud data management
With integrated edge, on-prem and cloud components, you can put data storage and processing where it’s most efficient and scale as needed. Feed edge data directly to field engineers. Manage critical operations data on-prem in validated environments. Aggregate data from multiple sites in the cloud to support enterprise analysis.
Rapid integration with business analytics
Reduce the data preparation burden with solutions for fast, secure transfer of real-time operations data into commonly used analysis and business intelligence tools. In addition to pre-built integrators, you can access data programmatically using our open APIs, SDK and message format.
