ESP-iSYS
Real-Time Database for Industrial Operations
overview
Turn Plant Data into a Real-Time Information Center
Plant data lives across DCS, PLC, power systems, metering, gas detection, and fire alarm systems — and usually stays fragmented.
SUPCON ESP-iSYS, a real-time database platform in development since 2002, unifies it for collection, storage, analysis, and monitoring in one place.
