    3 Years In Business, How It Almost Didn't Start, and How It Almost Ended

    3 Years In Business, How It Almost Didn't Start, and How It Almost Ended

    This video shows my reflections on 3 years in business, and I actually tell the whole story. From almost not starting Industrial Insight at all, to getting down to an incredibly low dollar figure in my business bank account and almost quitting in 2017, to now where we stand as a healthy, growing company. I would never tell this story if I didn’t think we were past the “startup” phase, and I am hoping that this story inspires at least one person to either begin their dream or

    Daily Production Reports in Power BI

    In my last video, I showed how you can turn a static daily report into a longer term view of your operations (In case you missed it, you can see it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w9HJcuBqENI&t=1s). You might have thought from that video that I see no value in understanding where a plant is operationally on a daily basis. That isn’t true. It is important to “know where you are on the map” as well as how you got there. In this video, I show how you can combine the daily

    Static Reports SHOULD Be a Thing of the PAST!

    I have actually seen recent posts on PI Square where people wanted a printout of PI Processbook screens so that everyone would be looking at the same data in the morning meetings at their plant. I was also recently given a static .PDF report from one of our customers to convert to a longer term, more insightful report that was actually the inspiration for this post. I also recently had a discussion with a potential customer where they wanted to do real-time or near real-time

    Are Industrial Data Historians an IIoT Platform?

    **** This is originally posted on Martin Davis's Industry 4.0 blog. I suggest you give him a follow. The original post where you can see how to follow him is here. **** A few weeks ago, Martin Davis and I were invited to present on a webinar hosted by Fluke/Accelix. We talked about the importance of the IIoT and Industry 4.0 as it pertains to maintenance. Martin talked strategy and how all of the pieces fit together and what you should be thinking about. I then showed some ex

    PI Data Extraction Part 2 - Slicing Data with BI Tools

    In this video, we take sampled data from PI Datalink and slice it with Tableau and Power BI. We also discuss the concept of combining data sets for investigations with BI tools. We can create "event frame like" investigations using these tools with raw data. Once again, I reference Rick Smith's presentation from the 2018 PI World conference: https://www.osisoft.com/Presentations/Feeding-the-Machine-Learning-Monster/ I also mention some videos on PI Datalink, which you can see
