An ordinary database is fine for ordinary data. Time-series data, however, with its massive speed and volume requirements, is anything but ordinary. And as the technology for its collection rapidly increases, standard databases just aren't cutting it. Companies need a database specifically designed for time-series data. Historis, one of the fastest time-series databases in the world, is designed specifically to meet the intense demands of time-series data. With virtually unlimited capacity, it can handle ANY size or speed of data collection. When other databases get clogged, Historis keeps on publishing without missing a single beat. Additionally, the design of Historis allows for natural compression of data, thus reducing required disk space. The bottom line: Historis users don't have to spend anywhere near as much money for data storage. Historis also provides several tools for analysis as well as links to popular analytical tools S-PLUS and MATLAB and integrates easily with existing systems.
Industry Applications
Through the latest advances in sensory-data collection and relaying, organizations now have the ability to obtain massive amounts of information concerning their equipment and operations. Historis gives its users the ability to transform an otherwise unwieldy flood of data into a manageable stream of relevant information that can be analyzed for informed decision-making. Energy, Vehicle Monitoring, Healthcare, Financial Services, and Equipment Monitoring represent just a few of the industries that Historis can benefit.
Energy
Better power plant performance yields more efficient production of electricity and generates public confidence in safety, economic competitiveness, and environmental solidity. To ensure maximum efficiency, power plants require not only continuous monitoring of equipment and flow parameters, but the ability to analyze the data in order to predict possible failures. An intelligent monitoring program will enable plant operators to maintain equipment on an as-needed basis and avoid unnecessary repairs. Historis enables organizations to collect, manage and analyze the massive amounts of data required to establish a program of predictive monitoring for strategic maintenance.
Vehicle Monitoring
For organizations operating fleets, constant monitoring of vehicle wear and tear is vital to sustaining operations at minimal cost. Vehicles can now be equipped with sensors to relay massive amounts of data about their performance. With Historis this data can be collected and analyzed in order to perform predictive diagnostics, schedule preventive maintenance, and optimize driver routes and fleet sizes, increasing efficiency on all levels.
Healthcare Monitoring
Clinicians and researchers now have access to enormous amounts of data obtained from methods such as microscopy, MRI, and EEG. Utilizing Historis for collection, management and analysis, this data can yield critical intelligence for more timely and accurate diagnosis as well as more effective monitoring of the progression and treatment of disease. Financial Services Sound investment decision-making requires the ability to monitor and analyze market activity to make informed predictions. Historis provides financial service companies with the ability to collect, manage and analyze the massive amounts of data necessary to make intelligent investment choices.
Equipment Monitoring
For organizations that rely on heavy machinery, constant monitoring of wear and tear is vital to maintaining an efficient operation. Machinery can now be equipped with sensors that relay massive amounts of performance-related data. Historis enables organizations to collect, manage and analyze this data for such vital functions as predictive diagnostics and preventative maintenance.
