ICONICS Releases New Real-Time Data Historian
The Hyper Historian is a High Performance, Scalable, 64-bit Historian

FOXBOROUGH, MA — April 7, 2008 — Today, ICONICS, an award-winning Microsoft Gold Certified Partner and provider of Web-enabled, OPC-based, HMI/SCADA Visualization and Manufacturing Intelligence software for Microsoft Windows® operating systems, released its new Hyper Historian™ data historian.

The ICONICS Hyper Historian is a high performance, scalable, enterprise–wide, 64-bit data historian. Designed from the ground up for the most mission-critical applications demanding the highest level of availability, the Hyper Historian delivers unparalleled performance while consuming a small amount of resources.

This is the first plant historian to be certified for Microsoft Windows Vista and Microsoft Windows Server 2008. Combining this level of certification and tight integration with SQL Server 2005 and 2008 makes the Hyper Historian from ICONICS the best-in-class plant historian for the most demanding applications.

“I’m extremely excited and pleased about the release of Hyper Historian” said Russ Agrusa, President and CEO of ICONICS. “This is a breakthrough product for large-scale applications requiring robust data collection. ICONICS took a look at past SQL-based data historians and has developed the first, 64-bit, real-time, plant-wide data historian in the market.”

With data logging rates greater than 50,000 data events per second on reference machines, the Hyper Historian uses a robust swinging door algorithm for extreme high-speed, real-time data collection. ICONICS Hyper Historian is available in stand-alone and enterprise versions. The enterprise version includes redundancy and multiple remote collectors.

“Hyper Historian is the first Microsoft Windows-integrated, 64-bit-optimized, secure, enterprise-wide, real-time data historian,” said Dave Oravetz, Vice President of Engineering at ICONICS. “It has been designed to handle the most mission critical applications that demand the highest level of availability and delivers unparalleled performance with very efficient use of computing resources.”

Hyper Historian is configured through the Workbench, a multi-functional, centralized, Web-based environment. The thin client, optimistic concurrent design helps to reduce engineering cost and speeds up development time for any project. The Workbench’s advanced configuration console performs complete service management and has integrated layout/project management and remote pack-and-go deployment capabilities.
