Hello All, We are developping a Data Quality product, that should be capable to detect stale Tags. So, first, here is our definition of stale: A Tag will be detected as stale if for a certain period of time, the number of reported values by the Tag will be lower than a minimum threshold. We capture (with AF SDK) the last value of the tag… (Show more Show less)

If you have tags that are NOT being actively populated by design, then, yes, you can have tags that are not receiving values and are not in error. Examples: lab tags without an active input source; the tag has a fixed value or is manually entered analyses that are event based, but the triggering event never receives a value

Is it possible for users to write their own analytics functions

It was possible to extend the functionality of earlier versions of PI-AF by writing your own Data Reference functions. Will something similar be available for Analytics? Can we extend the available functions with user written ones?

They do not necessarily have to be in the same domain. There are some considerations that you can look into for cross domain Kerberos. Please see this link. KB01709 - Kerberos Delegation across multiple domains

For the time series, it will not be complicate because the data willbe stored as OSI-Points. But the question is what to do with "non time series" data like : - Alarms. - Audit trails. - Batch execution data. -… (Show more Show less)

Proper use and understanding of the “Configuration Item” flag.

We have a question about the attribute properties drop down in AF. In particular, we would like to better understand the use of “Configuration Item” flag. We can read from the definition that this flag indicates that any attribute edited having this flag requires there to be a check in. My question is, what was the motivation behind this flag and… (Show more Show less)

Steve, This is an interesting idea. However, as a general rule we tend to not want to create elements unless they tie to an actual asset or other structure we are trying to model. For now we have decided to create a category called “Device Parameter”. The CMS client will know what to do with this parameter (ready only) and as an added bonus…

Discussion: Will the data historian die?

I just read this article and found it quite interesting: Will the Data Historian Die in a Wave of IIoT Disruption? A lot of traditional IT companies (Microsoft, IBM, etc) are on the move into the cloud, and although we all know that a time series database is the best location for time series data, it's no doubt that they will be trying to… (Show more Show less)
