In the world of data management and system efficiency, Compression MD stands out as a revolutionary tool. Developed by InCentrik, this system is designed to optimize the configuration of compression and exception settings in PI systems, offering a comprehensive solution for various challenges.
In this blog post, we'll explore how Compression MD can be a game-changer for your data management needs.
Compression MD is an advanced system designed to configure compression and exception settings in PI systems, targeting common challenges like slow data retrieval, missing data, and inefficient use of disk space. It examines past data to recommend optimal settings, thereby improving overall system efficiency.
While standard PI systems come with basic compression settings, they often fall short in handling complex data scenarios. Compression MD introduces a more dynamic approach, analyzing data patterns and applying settings that balance data integrity with storage and retrieval efficiency.
The latest iteration, Version 2.0, brings enhanced capabilities like support for larger PI queries and streamlined processes, reducing the need for manual intervention and adapting to user feedback for continuous improvement.
Yes, Compression MD is highly customizable. It offers a range of settings to accommodate different data storage preferences, allowing users to choose between higher compression with fewer data points or lower compression with more extensive data recording.
The primary objective of compression in PI systems is to find the right balance between data detail and retrieval speed. Compression MD is designed with this goal in mind, aiming to store extensive data while maintaining efficient retrieval times.
While instrument precision is a valid factor, it's not always practical for systems with thousands of tags. Compression MD offers a scalable solution that caters to large-scale system requirements.
Not necessarily. The algorithm of Compression MD is designed to work without the need for high-frequency data, which means it simplifies the process without requiring significant changes to existing compression settings.
Applying new settings to old data is challenging in PI, but Compression MD can adjust older data to facilitate easier data retrieval, balancing between data detail and system efficiency.
In summary, Compression MD analyses PI data over set periods, calculates typical ranges, and sets minimum data frequencies. These factors are used to adjust compression and exception settings, ensuring effective data recording and retrieval in line with business requirements.
iROC (Integrated Remote Operations Center) is a centralized location from which an organization can remotely manage and monitor its critical operations in real-time. iROC allows organizations to improve operational efficiency, reduce costs, and improve security by consolidating multiple remote operations into a view.
