PI Adapter for OPC UA should be able to write outputs to the OPC UA Server

The PI Adapter should be able to create a data pipe listener on certain streams (unsolicited reads) that would trigger the writes back to the OPC UA Server. This is useful when providing set points to the equipment without the need of establishin...

Include buffering metrics in adapter health

In the OmfEgress component in adapter health the metrics are limited to DeviceStatus, and IO rate. Another key metric for this component is the buffering state. To keep it simple it would be useful to have the number of events in the buffer. This ...

PI Adapter for OPC UA Array Support

As a PI System Administrator, I would like for the PI Adapter for OPC UA to support array data types from the OPC UA Server. A large amount of our data may be contained within arrays on our OPC UA Server, so we would not currently be able to colle...

Egress via AF SDK

Please add AF SDK Egress as an additional optional egress component. This would be very helpful for customers who are using the adapters, but keeping the PI Server on-premise. The adapters are relatively light-weight services; however, the “cost” ...
