    Allow remote configuration

    Adapters are currently only listening on localhost (127.0.0.1) causing them to be only accessible locally. For docker containers, they can only be accessed from within the container or directly on the host (with the --network host switch which res...

    Allow multiple instances of an AVEVA Adapter to exist on the same server without using Docker

    Currently, there can be only 1 instance of a specific AVEVA Adapter on each server if Docker is not used. However, within that instance, multiple components and data sources can be configured. This is convenient, but then the service account for t...

    Include buffering metrics in adapter health

    In the OmfEgress component in adapter health the metrics are limited to DeviceStatus, and IO rate. Another key metric for this component is the buffering state. To keep it simple it would be useful to have the number of events in the buffer. This ...

    Incorporate the concepts of PI System Directory and PI System Health into CONNECT

    For a short while, OSIsoft had a program called "PI System Directory", which allowed you to monitor, from a web interface, which versions of which PI programs were installed on each PI server, among other things. PI System Directory Publisher had ...

    State all of the missing dependencies when running the installer

    When you run the installer, the installer checks for dependencies, and as soon as it encounters a missing dependency, it reports it and stops checking for the rest. It should instead check for all of the dependencies and report all of the missing ...

    Remove the dependence on .NET Framework

    According to the documentation, the PI To CONNECT Agent requires both .NET Framework and .NET to be installed, which is odd since .NET is the successor to .NET Framework and so, in theory, you should need only .NET. Perhaps this shows that the PI ...

    Prioritize user-friendliness over reflecting the configuration file

    Currently, the AVEVA Adapter Configuration Utility is a program that lets you enter data into the configuration file without having to type parameter names and while having some protection against invalid inputs (e.g. a check box for true/false va...
