Known issues

  • Only Factry Historian measurements of type number, boolean and string are supported for indexing. Arrays and raw data types are not indexed

Performance consideration

  • Prior to version 6.3 of Factry Historian the historian has a fixed timeout for queries. This may cause some issue while fetching data over longer time periods, for example a couple of months. This issue can be resolved by limiting the “Max results per request” configuration value to a value of around 100000.
