About AVEVA PI System
AVEVA PI System is an operations data management platform that collects, stores, enriches and visualizes real-time industrial data. Core components include AVEVA PI Server, AVEVA Edge Data Store, and the CONNECT industrial intelligence platform, along with connectivity products such as PI Interfaces, PI Connectors, and AVEVA Adapters. Optional add-ons include AVEVA PI Vision for dashboards, AVEVA PI DataLink for Excel-based analysis, AVEVA PI Integrator for Business Analytics, AVEVA RtReports, AVEVA PI Manual Logger, and developer technologies for custom application integration.
The vendor's site describes the product as used across industrial operations including energy, pharmaceutical, mining, and utility sectors, though it does not specify a target company size. Deployment spans industrial edge, on-premises systems and cloud, described as a hybrid data infrastructure that can be configured to run components on-premises or in the cloud depending on the use case.
The vendor's site states that AVEVA is transitioning to a subscription-based commercial model, but does not list specific prices or tiers; instead it directs prospective buyers to contact a local sales representative to structure a contract. The site describes vendor-neutral data collection supporting many industrial protocols and mentions pre-built integrators plus open APIs and an SDK, but does not detail how specific named integrations are configured or what they cost. Implementation is described generally as starting with a pilot, connecting data sources, configuring dashboards, and scaling to more sites, without a stated timeline.
