Invensys' new cloud-hosted Wonderware Historian Online Edition enables customers to safely share more plant data with their workers while lowering their IT burden. The new cloud historian helps reduce implementation time, provides universal access and delivers alternative pricing models for expanded industry use. The software offering uses a multi-tier Historian database architecture, storing data from one or more local plant-level Wonderware Historians onto a cloud-hosted, enterprise-wide instance. Data flows only one way—from the local historians to the online historian—and it is protected from cyber intrusion so it can safely be made available to more workers for better troubleshooting, reporting and analytics. The solution leverages Windows Azure cloud services from Microsoft Corp., so there is no software to install or set up, saving on valuable IT resources and reducing capital requirements.
