Historian Portal
What is the Historian Portal?
The Factry Historian Portal is a centralized web-based interface for monitoring, managing, and supporting all your Historian instances across different sites. It offers real-time visibility into instance health, resource usage, and collector status from a single location. It extends Historian’s operational capabilities, helping teams ensure system uptime, stay on top of resource usage, and manage large-scale deployments more efficiently.
Access to the portal is restricted per client. Each client only sees their own registered Historian instances.
Why use it?
The portal helps you:
- Detect and resolve infrastructure issues early
- Monitor collector connectivity and system load
- Manage license usage across multiple instances
- Configure and receive alerts based on system health metrics
- Download the latest supported software binaries in one place
It is especially useful for IT teams, system integrators, and centralized support roles.
How does it fit in the system?
While Factry Historian focuses on data collection, processing, and visualization, the Portal provides operational oversight and support tooling. It complements the Historian by offering a top-down view across multiple deployments, useful for scaling, maintenance, and reliability.
