The global data historian market is predicted to reach USD 1.07 billion in 2024 and USD 1.48 billion by 2029, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.8% over the outlook period.
Data Historian, also identified as Process Historian or Operational Historian, is a software program used by various end-user verticals that records and retrieves production and process data over time. It stores the information in a time series database that can efficiently store data with minimal disk space and fast retrieval. In addition, it offers various applications such as production monitoring, environmental auditing, and asset performance management in all sectors.
The increasing volumes of industrial big data coupled with the increasing demand for consolidated data for process and performance improvement are important factors expected to drive the growth of the global Data Historian market. For example, the data generated by companies, according to estimates by industry experts, includes mostly unstructured data (80%), and only 20% of the data is structured. Data comes in a variety of formats, from structured digital data in traditional databases to unstructured text documents, video, audio, email, stock data, and financial transactions.
Additionally, with the advent of Industry 4.0, smart factories and organizations around the world are demonstrating a transition towards using massive amounts of data at multiple levels of their process. This leads to a hike in demand for historical data solutions by organizations to ensure efficient management, stable and efficient plant operations, and robust analytics.
Cloud deployment experienced the highest growth rate during the forecast period. The main reason is higher adoption among small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Most assets are physically distributed, for example, in a building or several locations. The cloud-based deployment option makes it easy to operate across multiple locations without having to install software and maintain supporting hardware to back it up.
Cloud-based data history can store a large amount of data and easily integrate with tools to analyze it into actionable information. You can enable access to big data from any desktop, web browser, or mobile device, connecting to a reliable cloud infrastructure. Additionally, the cloud-based data historian can use connection technology that leverages public, private, or hybrid cloud infrastructure to increase collaboration and efficiency without compromising security.
Cloud-based data historians provide advanced analytics. For example, Honeywell's Uniformance Cloud Historian uses cloud technology to analyze data across multiple sites to improve asset availability, increase plant uptime, and equip users with new, cutting-edge technologies, cloud, and data lake for business data, assets, and processes. In addition, it helps the user to improve the performance of the factory and the company.
Data history functionality, such as data synchronization, which eliminates complexity and allows multiple connections to be maintained at remote locations, is expected to drive the growth of the global data historian market. Moreover, the need to get the required data at the right time to avoid crashes in a process where the data historian plays an important role in driving the growth of the data historian market.
However, the high cost of establishing the data historian and the unavailability of reasonable models are the major factors that are expected to slow the growth of the worldwide market.
Due to the COVID-19 outbreak, market demand is likely to decline due to the closure of industries around the world. However, with the resurgence, the demand for historical data solutions is expected to increase over the forecast period, as is the demand for efficient operations across all industries.
