Overview
The Edge versions of the software include the ability to act as a Data Collector, getting field data using any of the 70+ industrial protocols available, then forward that data to a Historian System, or to an MQTT broker.
The system can use the Store-And-Forward protection, so when the server that needs to receive the data acquisition is not available, the system stores the data locally, and when the server becomes available the data is forwarded.

Canary and MQTT
We added the Store-And-Forward functionality when our software platform publishes data to the Canary Historian or an MQTT Broker, which means we temporarily store the data of a message for transmission to its destination at a later time in case the network is not accessible for any reason.
This feature is crucial in data collection projects, where the data is sent to a remote repository.
