Improve Scalability of PI Analytics

Currently you can only run a single PI Analytics instance at a time. We have two VMs running PI Analytics in a failover situation, but this means that one of the VMs is sitting idle 99% of the time. We are starting to hit the limits of scaling w...

Automated re-compression/average after a period of time

As a PI Administrator, currently there is no way to compress or average (then delete) your data automatically after an event reaches a certain age. It would be nice to have the ability to automatically compress or average specific tags after the e...

Ability for admins to restrict PI Data query to 2 years at a time.

I would like to restrict PI Vision users from pulling data for more than 2 years at a stretch. This setting should also restrict the PI Data link as well. This will make the software more robust to query timeout. Just let users know they need to a...
