LiveData Server is the core technology behind LiveData Server. LiveData Server is a dedicated real-time data server, and it is not dependent on any HMI environment to connect to devices or strategic applications. LiveData Server's real-time object engine was specifically designed and built to reliably handle even the most demanding data exchange between systems. LiveData Server connects natively to PLCs from all the major vendors and to any database available via a native ODBC driver.
Performance is optimized by avoiding costly layers.
With LiveData Server in the middle, PLCs can do attended or unattended lookup, upload, and download from a database. The PLC can launch the process, while LiveData Server deals with the details. You can start small and scale up to systems of unlimited size and capacity. Each LiveData Server can support up to 1000 bi-directional connections from devices, databases, and client desktops. You don't have to piece together multiple components to achieve the required functionality.
