S&C has recently completed development of a new Virtual Tag Server (VTS) binary, time-series historian. This historian replaces the Firebird database VTS was using to store and retrieve data. Users will notice an improved experience as the new historian is blazingly quick in reading and writing data to the OptiRamp database.
The new historian may be used as a standalone historian or with other OptiRamp applications and features, including Tag Advanced Functions (TAF)—a powerful data analytics solution for big data. Additionally, the new historian is fully integrated with the OptiRamp Simulator, allowing for even better data processing and use.
