- High-resolution, sub-second data collection with lightning-fast retrieval.
- Asset-based, contextualized data infrastructure for improved insights.
- Scalable architecture for multi-site and enterprise deployment.
High-Speed Time Series Data Storage
Automation Layer
The historian gathers high frequency data from every automation and control system in the plant including PLCs, DCSs, QCS, LIMS, and more.
Smart Data Collection
“Store and forward” technology buffers data to ensure maximum integrity, and OPCs seamlessly interface with your automation layer.
Superior Data Storage
Instantly access 100% of your historical data while automatically archiving less relevant data into storage drives that take up less space.
Rapid Remote Access
Quickly view optimized, aggregated data from both corporate & remote sites with instant access to lossless, high resolution production metrics.
Simple, Reliable Process Data Collection & Storage
Access production data from any source across the plant or enterprise-wide. The dataPARC Historian connects your plant’s automation layer to a simple and reliable data management portal, enabling unlimited users to access high quality time-series data to enhance decision-making and optimize plant performance.

The World’s Largest Manufacturers Depend on dataPARC
Powering Practical Analytics Solutions for 25+ Years
“I look at dataPARC as the first step in the data journey for our company. If we’re going to become a data-driven company, we have to have easy access to our data. That’s the first step, and that’s what dataPARC has given us.”
Derek Peine, General Manager – Western Plains Energy
“Our investment in dataPARC is allowing us to focus on system optimization as we leverage the data we are now capturing.”
Tyler Fedun
Director IT Operations – Energy Transfer
“Instead of having only lab people using the lab database and only engineering using the process information, it’s all come together. It’s all available to operations, engineering, & managers.”
Ryan Sullivan, Production Engineer – W.R. Grace
“Store & Forward” Technology for Enhanced Reliability
dataPARC’s award-winning historian provides native store and forward technology, ensuring robust data transfer and maximum reliability. The data collector buffers data locally and validates successful transmission to the historian before clearing the queue. This technology prevents data loss when connection to the historian is lost. In complex network architectures, like multiple domains, this technology becomes even more critical.
Push Processed Data Anywhere
dataPARC’s operational historian collects & records high-frequency industrial process data from all the automation systems & control systems in your plant. Analyze, filter, & generate modeled values then push the processed data to your current IT, OT, or business intelligence applications using a single-point API.
High-Speed, Enterprise Level Data Storage
Make all data perform like it’s local. dataPARC’s process data historian is designed for increased operational performance at reduced costs. Easily connect individual sites to the corporate office with an unlimited user pricing model, so everyone within the organization can make smarter data-driven decisions.
