Time to read: 7 minutes  Posted by Torey Penrod-Cambra For the past several months, 55 beta testers in 13 countries have been kicking the tires on HighByte Intelligence Hub version 3.0 and generously providing their feedback. Today, I’m excited to announce this major release is now available.
Version 3.0 is a step change for the Intelligence Hub and for the Industrial DataOps market. It raises the bar for what a DataOps solution can be at Enterprise scale. It introduces a powerful new Pipelines builder to curate complex data pipelines. It makes the often-vague concept of the Unified Namespace (UNS) tangible and achievable with an embedded MQTT broker—reducing additional software, cost, and administration overhead for our customers. I sat down with HighByte Chief Product Officer John Harrington to talk about some of these advancements available in Version 3.0, including Pipelines. His thoughts are below. I also provide insights from our partner Goodtech, a deep dive on the embedded broker, a review of new project management capabilities, and more.

The release is packed with powerful new capabilities, including a fully integrated MQTT broker, enhanced Central Configuration, more intuitive user experience, and many more. These capabilities will enable you to rapidly deploy the data infrastructure you need to build a Unified Namespace (UNS), scale these deployments, manage the environment, and meet your advanced Industrial DataOps use case requirements. Time to read: 8 minutes Posted by John Harrington "We're not in Kansas anymore." In fact, we’re in Chicago at IMTS, the largest North American Industrial Technology show of the year, where we’re announcing the release of HighByte Intelligence Hub version 2.5! The latest version has come a long way since its original release in early 2020. What began as a data hub for OPC to MQTT has evolved into an Intelligence Hub that truly lives up to its name. The Intelligence Hub satisfies real, complex business use cases and enables enterprise IT management of industrial data.
Manufacturers have realized that publishing 750,000 data tags (or even 75,000 data tags) straight to the cloud at a 1 second rate does not solve real business problems for the enterprise and often creates a data swamp. Instead, industrial data must be collected, transformed, aggregated, and delivered to the cloud as curated data payloads. In HighByte Intelligence Hub version 2.5, we’ve provided unparalleled support for Microsoft Azure with the addition of Azure IoT Edge connectivity, support for Azure IoT Central, and the ability to import DTDL models from Azure Digital Twins. We’ve also also added support for third-party JavaScript functions, input cache management, instance referencing, and many more features to improve the coverage of more complex use cases that customers need to solve. As industrial data has become the major source of data for the broader business to drive improvement and new lines of revenue, the systems feeding the cloud for these initiatives must fall within the enterprise IT infrastructure. With the latest release of the Intelligence Hub, we’ve added support for Active Directory and improved ability to monitor and alert when data is bad or stale and when flow performance is poor. This post provides an overview of the release, highlighting new connectivity, monitoring, management, and advanced use case capabilities. Let’s take a look. Time to read: 9 minutes  Posted by Torey Penrod-Cambra It’s been inspiring to see the wide variety of ways customers are using HighByte Intelligence Hub to conquer Industry 4.0 use cases that previously seemed impossible. From creating contextualized electronic batch reports to improving first run yield, predicting asset maintenance, performing real-time analytics on UNS data, and gaining enterprise-wide performance visibility across multiple sites with different systems—customers are using the Intelligence Hub in increasingly more sophisticated ways.
With more sophisticated use cases comes the need for more sophisticated tools for scalability and connectivity in the Intelligence Hub. That’s why I am so excited to introduce HighByte Intelligence Hub version 2.4. With new instance and input templates and parameters, global functions, custom conditions, OPC collection, and more, the latest release takes a giant leap forward in terms of scalability and data pipeline automation. I sat down with my friend and colleague John Harrington, Chief Product Officer at HighByte, to learn more about version 2.4 and what these new capabilities will mean for our customers. |
