Welcome to the AVEVA Adapter for RDBMS

AVEVA adapters collect data from assets in remote locations, convert that data to the Open Message Format (OMF), and send that data to an AVEVA data archive. Adapters come in a variety of protocols.

Adapters are classified as a PI Edge technology, meaning they operate in the following conditions:

• On low-powered devices like single-board computers or Raspberry PI.

  Definition: Raspberry Pi is a series of small single-board computers (SBCs) developed in the United Kingdom by the Raspberry Pi Foundation in association with Broadcom.

• In remote environments with limited connectivity or conditions too harsh for typical computers.

• On both Windows and Linux operating systems.

Adapters are an AVEVA data collection technology. They gather operations data with security, fast performance, and no-code manageability. Adapters can be installed quickly and are optimized for real-time time-series data.

Adapters perform the following actions:

• Collect data from assets in remote locations over a variety of popular protocols, a process known as Data ingress. Each adapter available supports a specific communication protocol.

• Convert ingress data to the OMF (Open Message Format).

• Send converted data to a supported data archive, a process known as Data egress. Supported data archives include:

  • PI Server

  • CONNECT data services

  • Edge Data Store
