Allow session persistence to support true QoS 2 data collection and backfill of events after a data source disconnection

It appears that regarding Session Persistence (persistent vs clean session), the Adapter hardcodes setting the Clean Session Flag for the generic data source (Sparkplug doesn’t QoS 2 nor session persistence) to true. This should be a user-defined ...

Allow Adaptors to run in Docker

Allow files to be processed similarly to, or better than, the PI Connector For UFL (in particular, allow data to be manipulated before using or archiving it)

Have the option to discover new data streams, auto-select them, and save data retrieved for them, all with a single query to the data source, similar to PI Connectors

Background + problem When PI Connector tries to save data for a tag that does not already exist (e.g. data for a new piece of equipment), it will create that tag automatically. This is very convenient, but it sometimes led to issues where data tha...
