Missing Units of Measure (UOM)
If OCS is missing units of measure that you use and need for your data, please vote for this idea AND add a comment to this idea specifying what the missing UOMs are.
12 votesThis work is currently planned for 2Q2021.
There are a couple of requested UOMs we do not plan on adding: VWC (%) should use the existing % UOM and include Volumetric Water Content (VWC) in the name or description of the stream. Same for pH.
Additionally, we are not adding currency at this time because of the many complications around conversions (since currency values fluctuate over time).
We will continue to update this idea with status updates.

Segregate Data from Different Customers within a Namespace
Ability to segregate and view information (Data Ingress, Streams, Assets, etc.) from multiple customers/clients within a Namespace SO THAT it's very clear what data and system artifacts are related to each customer and SO THAT information doesn't accidentally get mixed up and exposed to the wrong customer.
Ability to manage security from ingress to egress via the same mechanism.

Support different data retention via OCS
Some customers need to store (retain) some, but not all, data for extended periods of time. For example, there can be a need to store any data used in regulatory reports for 5-7 years. Going forward, could OCS be an option for collecting/aggregating/storing these data?

Store Images & Pictures into OCS
Ability to store images as time bound data into OCS, and retrieve the images for viewing or modeling/analysis.
Example scenario: a thermal camera takes a picture of a furnace and the image is used to extract data and performance KPIs about the furnace (stored back into OCS).

Define UOM on SDS Type Field in OCS Portal
Ability to define Units of Measure on a Field in an SDS Type using the OCS Portal UI. Currently, the field type, name, and description can be edited, and fields can be marked as indexed. It is not possible in the UI to add UOM to a Field.

Easier Experience for Editing Stream Types
Stream Types are not editable in OCS SDS by design but it's painful to have to recreate a new type and do your work all over again when you need to make a change or forgot something.
Please capture related scenarios you have around making changes to Stream Types here.

Batch Tracking Data Storage & Visualization
Ability to capture Batch Tracking data into OCS and visualize it.
The data could be coming from an existing PI System with using Event Frames.

Improve type dropdown for SDS fields
When creating a type using the OCS Portal, the SDS field "Type" dropdown is a flat list including dozens of options, half of which are array types. This could be better organized to make common types (e.g. Double, Int32, DateTime, and String) easier to find in the list.

Create multiple index types through OCS Portal
Ability to save a type with multiple indices using the OCS Portal UI. Currently, it is possible to select multiple fields as "Indexed," but saving the type then results in an error as the index order is not defined.

Support Custom Units of Measure (UOMs)
The ability to define custom units of measure (UOMs) within OCS.

GeoJSON
As a remote operations monitoring user, I would like to store locations and track movements of assets in a native GeoJSON data type / format for both querying as part of OCS and integration with peer cloud services that take advantage of geospatial positioning data.

Video Storage
The ability to store video files in OCS and relate the video to process data by timestamp.

Large data set of real data for testing - PMU Data from LBNL
As someone who collaborates on PMU Data or wants to do Wide Area Surveillance would it be possible to load and test data from LBNL PMU Data set. This will allow researchers to create sample solutions on top of OCS. In this area. More informtona and the data set can be found here: http://powerdata.lbl.gov/

Local Data Historian for embedding in Partner Applications
As a Partner that wants to focus on application logic instead of writing a database, I often receive manual data inputs, results of time-series calculations, and create predictive data sets that require persistence SO THAT our application can receive and publish data from OSIsoft and other sources without the overhead of managing a full stack of software.
Ideally this local historian would seamlessly integrate with our application without having to directly embed it (so upgrades are easy) - while also having a high affinity to Data Sharing behaviors in OSIsoft's Cloud Services (thus making it near zero configuration).
Some of…

Local Data Historian for Data Science
As a Data Scientist or Data Steward, I would like a local, zero configuration, in-memory ordered, columnar data storage instance that can take a subset of data from a Cloud Services Data Sharing Publication and persist it for local computing resource tasks SO THAT repetitive updates and changes to my data queries perform well, and also, give me a safe space to test several scenarios prior to publishing data back to Cloud Services.
