flow software

Flow connects to and ingests data from multiple sources, including industrial Historians, IoT and Cloud Platforms, SQL Databases, NoSQL Databases and Real-Time systems, meaning we can leverage the investments you have already made.

There will always be data that cannot be captured automatically, whether it’s data read from an instrument indicator or external data from email or paper-based systems. Flow handles manually captured data elegantly through the use of Flow Forms.

As data streams into Flow, it is cleaned, contextualised, and transformed by a set of calculation services, including primary aggregations and filters, cumulative and secondary aggregations, moving window calculations, expression-based calculations, evaluations against limits or targets, and secondary aggregations on event periods.

Flow reports, charts and dashboards are easily configured and served to operators, team leaders and managers via a web browser. Chart configuration employs built-in visualisation best-practice, thus maximising the transfer of information to the human visual cortex:

Flow automatically compiles and distributes information and PDF exports as and when required. Distribution is secure and handled via Email, Slack, Microsoft Teams, Telegram and SM.

Flow exposes an industry-standard REST API for model discovery and information access that can be used to build third-party apps or integration into existing applications.

Flow provides integration components to automatically publish information to your other systems via industry standard protocols in near real-time. Flow integrates with Industrial Historians, SQL Databases and Realtime Systems, including MQTT SparkplugB.

Flow Systems can publish information to other Flow Systems. For multi-site organisations, each of your sites’ Flow Systems publishes its information to your HQ Flow System. The HQ Flow System provides invaluable fleet-wide information for site comparisons, benchmarking, and logistics planning.
