Apache NiFi has been a game changer in the world of IoT, allowing developers to automate data transformation and flow from IoT sensors and edge devices to anywhere they want. By combining NiFi with InfluxDB, industries can easily make their IoT data streams securely accessible and usable, providing a single view of data across all facilities for proactive maintenance, failure detection, and other business-based outcomes. The combination enables the enterprise to have access to real-time plant-floor information in a consistent manner, overcoming common challenges such as connecting facility or enterprise historians with modern toolsets and analytics pipelines while guaranteeing continuous data flow between them. With this solution, industries can leverage OPC-based data from factory automation and process manufacturing, providing a powerful solution in a matter of minutes to securely collect, observe, and act on facility data.
