Real-time decisions from a secure and trustworthy set of industrial data
Capture and store high-fidelity industrial data. AVEVA Historian is a process database integrated with operations control that gives you access to your process, alarm, and event history data.
Combining advanced data storage and compression techniques with an industry-standard query interface, AVEVA Historian brings high-performance simplicity to keep your team fully aware of operational performance for faster troubleshooting and informed decisions.
High performance industrial database built for data integrity
AVEVA Historian combines high-speed data collection with built-in advanced data retrieval modes to make your data queries easier to build, more efficient, and more powerful.
A complete picture of operational history
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.
Advanced data storage and compression
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.
Uncompromising data integrity
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.
Process database for operations control
Tailored to the demanding needs of industrial processes across all industries, AVEVA Historian is the perfect companion to AVEVA’s world-leading operations control solutions for Human Machine Interface (HMI) and Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA). This enables faster, more informed decisions while keeping everyone informed on operational performance.
