Edge Data Store Customer Scenario
Have a way to store data locally at the edge and then forward it to a higher level PI System and/or OSIsoft Cloud Services.

Enable TLS Configuration
As a customer I want HTTP and HTTPS support for Edge DS so that I can configure the appropriate level of transport security for my deployment.
8 votesPlease vote and comment on this enhancement request with you use cases for enabling/disabling TLS.

remote ingress to EDS
Enable remote access to EDS OMF endpoint to support deployments where Adapter/OMF application is installed on different host/network to EDS because architecture must fit in with tiered networks for critical asset security. For example remote sites or assets with multiple networks separating data source from internet access.

Edge Data Store Visualization
Ability to have basic visualization of data from the Edge Data Store for local operations.
6 votesOSIsoft would like to better understand the needs around local visualization for the Edge Data Store (EDS). For example, what type of visualization, e.g. simple time series trends? Does the visualization serve one EDS or can data from multiple EDS be visualized? Note for the EDS v1 release, OSIsoft is relying on partners and end customers to develop their own data visualization applications using the EDS API.

EDS: OPC DA Connector
Ability for OPC DA connector to write data to Edge Data Store.
5 votesThe initial release of the Edge Data Store (EDS) will include OPC UA (server) connectivity. OSIsoft would like to understand if OPC UA can be used in place of OPC DA due to the difficulties in implementing OPC DA (server) connectivity on non-Windows OS. Note EDS is targeting Windows and Linux devices with the majority of the use cases favoring Linux.

Egress data to another Edge Data Store
I would like to be able to configure an Edge Data Store to egress data to another Edge Data Store. Due to network limitations, I cannot egress data directly to OCS or PI Web API. Egressing to another Edge Data Store would allow me to configure an architecture where one EDS acts as a relay to the other before reaching a final egress endpoint like the PI Web API or OCS.

EDS: dNP3 Connector
Ability for dNP3 connector to write data to Edge Data Store.
4 votesThe initial release of the Edge Data Store (EDS) will include Modbus TCP (slave) and OPC UA (server) connectivity to supplement the OMF endpoint and EDS API options for data ingress. OSIsoft would like to understand the scenarios for DNP3 connectivity to help prioritize DNP3 as a future connectivity option for EDS. In addition, OSIsoft would like to understand the need for a “standalone” DNP3 connector that will run on WIndows or Linux devices (standalone meaning without EDS).

EDS: Modbus Ethernet Connector
Ability for Modbus Ethernet connector to write data to the Edge Data Store.
4 votesThe initial release of the Edge Data Store (EDS) will include Modbus TCP (slave) and OPC UA (server) connectivity to supplement the OMF endpoint and EDS API options for data ingress.
-
EDS: Modbus Serial Connector
Ability for Modbus Serial connector to write data to Edge Data Store.
3 votesThe initial release of the Edge Data Store (EDS) will include Modbus TCP (slave) connectivity. OSIsoft would like to understand if Modbus TCP is sufficient to cover the Modbus Serial use cases, i.e. if the user will accept the use of a Modbus Serial to TCP converter (provided by others) on the Modbus slave side.

Edge CMD added to $path
When you install Edge CMD it should be available everywhere from the command line instead of having to navigate to the specific installation folder.

Use EDS to download OCS and PI data for use as a local data cache for Data Science in tools like R-Studio and Jupyter Notebook
As a data scientist, I would like to set up types, streams, and query data from OCS to use locally on my desktop in data science languages (e.g. R, Python) and tools I use (R-Studio, Jupyter Notebook) so that I can rapidly try different numerical methods rapidly, and possibly send results back to OCS and/or PI Systems.

Different Transfer Modes for EDS Egress
Ability to transfer a subset of important data to PI/OCS and trigger transfer of less important data manually when connectivity of remote asset improves.
For example, send 1000 streams to PI or OCS continuously, and send remaining streams when ship asset comes to shore every couple of months.
2 votes -
Store Images & Pictures into EDS
Ability to store images as time bound data into EDS, and send the images to OCS for longer term storage, viewing or modeling/analysis.
Example scenario: a thermal camera takes a picture of a furnace, image stored locally, and then sent to OCS where it is used to extract data and performance KPIs about the furnace (stored back into OCS).
