A computing device for collecting and preserving data acquired from various devices in a data model with the respective context of acquired data. The computing device may provide a user interface to receive the context or information model associated with a dataset. By providing data with its context, different software platforms may synthesize or analyze the retrieved data more efficiently. Moreover, the computing device may include transaction conditions to define a workflow for transferring the datasets using data model associated with one or more datasets for transmission of data to a destination. The transaction conditions may detail a custom workflow for data communication through an industrial automation system using the data model.

Data models for defining data transmission workflow and facilitating data communication

A distributed and scalable data historian framework is provided that allows historian functionality to be efficiently incorporated at various levels of an industrial enterprise. The framework includes a historian data interface system that provides a single interface and common protocol for configuring, managing, and viewing historian data located throughout a network of historian distributed across the industrial enterprise. The historian data interface system leverages a data model that models the enterprise and sources of historian data to facilitate fast and efficient retrieval of desired historian data. By unifying the distributed historians under a common framework, the data model can facilitate enterprise-level management of historian data collection and storage.
