Seeq Expands Support and Integration with OSIsoft PI System

Seeq Corporation, an OSIsoft partner, announced the imminent release of Seeq R17, which includes new features expanding support for the OSIsoft PI System.

Seeq is a visual analytics application for engineers and scientists in process manufacturing organizations who need to rapidly wrangle, investigate, and share insights on production data.  

Specific features in Seeq that enable integration with the OSIsoft PI System include:

Deployment Flexibility: Seeq can connect to PI Systems deployed in any configuration: a single enterprise historian, distributed PI Systems located across many different locations, and in L2 or L3 networks.  Connections can be on premises, or with PI running on a cloud platform, such as Microsoft Azure.

Discovery and Installation: Seeq automatically detects the presence of PI System credentials and creates a connection for rapid indexing of all tags and sensors in just minutes.  Once indexed, any PI System tag or sensor may be searched from within Seeq.

OSIsoft Vision (formerly OSIsoft Coresight): Seeq has added integration for OSIsoft Vision in Seeq R17, which enables analytics and views created in Seeq to be published to users in OSIsoft Vision dashboards and display panels.

Asset Framework: OSIsoft customers can bring their investment in Asset Framework forward with Seeq’s integrated asset visualization tools, including the ability to create “asset relative” displays, so calculations on one asset may be applied to another set of assets.

Event Frames and PI Batch: OSIsoft customers can leverage their investment in Event Frames data in Seeq Workbench to leverage the context information captured in their PI System, and Seeq also supports legacy PI Batch investments for analytics and investigation.

PI Notifications Integration: Seeq can be configured to support integration with PI Notifications and write data back to PI Systems, enabling other users to take advantage of regression analysis, predictive analytics, and other calculations created in Seeq and stored with the source data sets.

Microsoft Partnership: Like OSIsoft, Seeq is a Microsoft partner.  Seeq runs on Windows Server, supports Active Directory for user management, connectivity to Microsoft SQL Server, and has integration with Microsoft Excel and the Azure Cortana Intelligence Suite for visualization and reporting.
