Learn about connector-to-PI System buffering

Connectors are capable of buffering data to PI System servers. This includes time-series values, tag creation, and asset creation events. Since connector buffers are capable of buffering these different types of events, the number of events in the PI Data Server and PI Asset Server tabs on the Diagnostics page represent a generic grouping of real-time and asset updates in PI AF. For more information on PI System buffering events, see the Learn about diagnostics section.
