A recent press release out of GE reports that, “GE Digital today announced the availability of Historian 7.0, a best-in-class data historian designed to connect industrial equipment from the control (asset) layer to cloud environments, natively integrated with GE’s Predix platform. Historian collects, stores and normalizes time series sensor data from industrial equipment and processes. This information empowers real-time analysis and troubleshooting needed to analyze asset performance so industrial businesses can improve operations and maintenance efficiency. Proven with a more than 15-year legacy and thousands of installs at companies around the world, Historian 7.0 changes the way businesses perform and compete by making data accessible and actionable. The software features a proprietary archiving and compression technique, native collectors and APIs to easily get data in and out, native methods to move data to both HDFS and to Predix, GE’s operating system for the Industrial Internet.”

Jeremiah Stone, APM General Manager for GE Digital, commented, “High performing Industrials are increasingly data driven organizations… Companies in every industry and every geography rely on process historians as their primary operational data store to deliver real-time analysis and troubleshooting, enable historical and complex analytics, and reduce data management costs. GE’s Historian enables data-driven decision making by connecting islands of production information and removes barriers to decision-making by providing a ‘single source of the truth’ with a common data foundation and consistent analysis and reporting.”
