An option to store symmetric keys in a file - OPC UA

It would be helpful to be able to read network trace between OPC UA Server and Adapter even if communication is encrypted. This possibility is described here https://www.unified-automation.com/news/news-details/analyzing-encrypted-opc-ua-traffic-w...

Make the Agent recrawl the AF/PI Point database from scratch

Make the agent recrawl the AF/PIPoint database from scratch every now and again and update its cache if required. I think this is what PI Vision does, so it doesn't have these limitations.

Support OPC UA ReverseConnect

Support ReverseConnect, allowing for the connection to be establish from the more secure area where the OPC Server reside to the least secure area where the OPC Client / Adapter resides. This is implemented in many other client tools and SDK such...

The DNP3 Adapter should support group 40

The interface supports this group. The Adapter does not (see https://docs.aveva.com/bundle/adapter-for-dnp3/page/1231146.html). It is essential that the Adapter have this identical feature as the interface, to allow it to read the same data and be...

Allow session persistence to support true QoS 2 data collection and backfill of events after a data source disconnection

PI Adapter High Availability Resilience

Add documentation on architectural best practice

When setting up PI to Connect Agent transfers, we need to emphasize in the documentation that we recommend installation of the PI Agent on the same network, and in the same physical location, but not on the same server as the PI server it will be ...

Launch history recovery data transfers in steps

When we want to backfill all data from a PI Server into CONNECT Data Services, this could be long and painful. A single data transfer to perform such for a few years may take weeks. It would be good to have the ability to specify an "endtime" alon...
