In this episode, we dive into the evolution of industrial data infrastructure with Jeroen Coussement, Founder and CEO of Factry. Factry is building modern historian and MES software platforms that help manufacturers collect, contextualize, and act on operational data at scale.We unpack the critical role of historians in modern manufacturing environments. While traditional historians focused on archiving time-series data, today’s requirements go far beyond that. Jeroen outlines how a modern historian must fulfill three foundational roles:Efficient high-volume time-series data acquisitionContextual modeling across complex factory assetsDemocratized access and self-service tools for operations teamsThis episode covers:The differences between SCADA, MES, and historiansThe evolution from legacy platforms like OSIsoft PI to cloud-native historiansArchitectures for on-prem, cloud, and hybrid historian deploymentsReal-world use cases like wind turbine optimization for shadow flicker mitigationCommon challenges in digital transformation, including network modernization and change managementHow manufacturers can scale from data collection to full analytics enablementJeroen also shares why point solutions often lead to fragmentation, and how building a robust data foundation opens the door to advanced tools like AI, unified namespace, and better decision-making.📍 Guest: Jeroen Coussement, Founder and CEO at Factry🌐 https://www.factry.io📚 Resources Mentioned:Factry Historian: https://www.factry.io/products/factry-historianIT/OT Insider: https://insider.itot.ioCanary Historian: https://www.canarylabs.com/AVEVA PI System: https://www.aveva.com/en/solutions/pi-system/GE Proficy Historian: https://www.ge.com/digital/applications/historianJoltek Consulting: https://www.joltek.com/⏱️ YouTube Timestamps00:00 Intro and welcome02:00 Jeroen’s journey from bioscience engineer to founder of Factry05:00 What is an industrial historian and why...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/yoKAvzBXZ3YjQTekFk7KFGXeuwJ29WgXvop3dVEfhLs/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzE3MjEzLzE2MDk0/MzA1OTgtYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
