Data records are collected locally and then copied to the server. Once successfully transferred to the server, a data record is kept locally for a default of 30 days.
The same data structure is used wherever data is stored in the FS System (locally or on the server).

Examples:
A plant collecting an average of 1,000 SPC Variable Measurement Records per day would require ~22Mb per year to store that data on their server.
A plant collecting an average of 10,000 SPC Variable Measurement Records per day would require ~220Mb per year to store that data on their server.
A plant collecting an average of 1,000 SPC Variable Measurement Records that are each tagged with a “Serial Number” and an “Operator ID” Event Record per day would require ~66Mb per year to store that data on their server.
A plant collecting an average of 1,000 Productivity Machine Output Records per day would require ~22Mb per year to store that data on their server.
