A Data Historian is a specialized database optimized for storing and retrieving time-series data. It's primarily used in industrial environments (e.g., manufacturing, oil & gas, power generation) to collect and archive data from various sources like sensors, PLCs, and other control systems. This historical data is then used for process monitoring, performance analysis, troubleshooting, regulatory compliance, and generating reports. Data historians are designed to handle large volumes of data with high velocity and provide efficient data retrieval for analysis and visualization.
