Wonderware Historian + Citect SCADA 2016

Hi,

We have a Citect SCADA 2016 installed on our server. We are now considering adding Historian. Our solution provider has talked us about the new powerful Wondeware Historian which should connect to Citect SCADA using a 'connector' tool. We have a choice of installing the Historian on the same machine or onto another one.

What would you recommend?

  • We are in the midst of a similar setup.
    What i recommend is not put historian on the SCADA system.
    you can put the Citect connector to wonderware (v3 with latest update) on the citect server or if you can
    install on another machine so that you can setup redundancy. you can specify the primary and secondary server in the settings. this provides redundancy to Citect but the collector itself is not redundant.
    Wonderware historian should be on another server with enough capacity for the historian history files.
