Outdated self-monitoring solutions are no longer needed — modernize your AVEVA PI System monitoring.

Challenge

Today, data consumers expect data to be available, reliable, and trustworthy for decision-making - making it essential to keep the "green lights" on at all times.

When it comes to the AVEVA PI System, many companies still rely on solutions where the system is configured to monitor itself - meaning the same system is both the source of information and responsible for monitoring and notifying about its own health.

Self-monitoring and siloed monitoring significantly increase the risk of both critical and non-critical failures in the AVEVA PI System going unnoticed. At the same time, the PI System often remains disconnected from the organization’s broader, centralized enterprise IT monitoring and escalation systems.

Avoid Self-Monitoring for your AVEVA PI System:  

  1. Single Point of Failure - If critical AVEVA components such as PI Notifications, PI Analytics, or PI Asset Framework fail, you may never receive an alert, as they are part of the self-monitoring configuration. Operators may only discover issues through user complaints or during routine checks instead of being alerted proactively.
  2. Siloed Monitoring and Reliability - The AVEVA PI System is disconnected from the organization's centralized IT monitoring and escalation systems. Isolated and stand-alone AVEVA PI monitoring setups often become poorly maintained and underutilized over time.
  3. External Verification - There is no specialized support system validating that the AVEVA PI System is functioning as expected. External monitoring provides an additional, trustworthy source of information on the health and performance of your environment.

Solution

NodeIT supports key players in the Nordics with the support, maintenance, and development of the AVEVA PI System, including the delivery of 24/7 critical support.
