Benefts

Robust Performance, High Availability, and Comprehensive Scalability

With the PI System, data collection is handled in real-time at subsecond speeds

and decades of data are readily available. Designed to support global operatiothe PI Server maximizes the capabilities of your hardware and when needed sca

both horizontally and vertically. Implementing the PI High Availability option for

the PI Server ensures both continuous storage and availability of data. The PI Serv

fully util izes 64-bit technology, multi-processor/multi-core hardware and the lates

Windows Server operating systems. Millions of tags can be stored on a single serv

so data from hundreds of plants, a city full of smart meters, etc. is centrally stored

and available to users. The PI Server can collect all your data today and grow wi

your business; handling increased volumes of data for years to come.

Organize and Find Relevant Data

With integrated asset modeling and methods for contextualizing data according

to operational events, users not only see the data they need, but they see it in a

context they understand. This allows users to organize, structure and search their

PI System data and external data according to objects they are most familiar wit

for example, physical assets in their processes such as reactors, transformers and

meters or by events such as startups, downtimes and product runs. When data is

easy to nd and easy to consume, users can act on it faster.

Turn Data Into Information

Using the PI Servers comprehensive calculation tools, PI System users can

implement everything from simple averages and totalizations to KPI calculations

and highly complex programmable calculations. These calculations transform ra

data into usable information so it can be leveraged for real-time analysis, proces

monitoring, continuous process improvement and more.

Make Your Data Work for You

With integrated alerting capabilities, condition monitoring logic can be

embedded into rules which the PI Server uses to monitor your data in real-time an

notify users when triggering conditions occur through multiple delivery channels

The content of these notications is fully congurable and can contain a variety o

related information including cur rent data values, standard operating procedure

links to web pages, etc. Armed with all the information they need, users can
