  2. Leverages .NET Framework ODBC support
  3. No need for additional development using VBA or Manager Toolkit
  4. Flexible query capabilities through SQL

Additional Information

InfluxDB is a purpose-built database for storing and analyzing time series data, making it a perfect fit for IoT, energy monitoring, and industrial automation. It supports high ingestion rates, real-time querying, and powerful Flux scripting. PcVue integration allows for direct access to InfluxDB without the need for extra development, making data retrieval from industrial sensors and smart devices effortless.

Provider Overview

The .NET Framework Data Provider for ODBC uses the built-in ODBC Driver Manager (DM) to enable data access. This means that all ODBC drivers available from third-party vendors or from legacy applications should work with the UDC.
