*Cloud:

*Though the Wonderware Historian has a SQL interface and so looks to be a SQL server, it stores its data in the filesystem, in high-compressed files. By this, Wonderware Historian provides a much higher data transfer rate than a SQL server ( it was able to store 40.000 datapoints/s even in 1995 ?! ) and just requires for datastorage just 3% - 5% of the filespace necessary for a SQL server. Even with the new "Wonderware Online Edition", the data is stored in the filesystem of Microsoft Asure, though the service imitates to be a SQL server in the cloud.
*Wonderware Historian is shipped with a Microsoft SQL server, but the SQL server is not used for storing datapoints, but just for stuff like this:
-Configuration.
-Security.
-Storage of Alarm messages.
*It is possible to host the "Wonderware Data Acquisition Server" separately from the "Wonderware Historian".

*Operational tip: It might be useful for historian users to redeclare most current "alarms" ( immediate action necessary ) to be just "events" ( at some time, somebody must take care of something ).

*Motivation for MDUS: Smart Metering data needs to be evaluated by ERP systems, so there must be an interface between MDMS systems ( or smart metering data sources ) and ERP.

===== OpenMES & Open Source MES =====
==== OpenMES - Definition ====
*Definition "MES stands for Manufacturing Execution Sstem. 'Open' means here that the interfaces among various seminconductor tools are made publicly standardized and compatible. To accomplish such openess, CORBA ( [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_Object_Request_Broker_Architecture|Common Object Request Broker Architecture]] ) played a very important role. 'which enables and regulates interoperatiblity between objects and applications across heterogeneous languages and computer boundaries' ( Lin & Jeng, 2006 )"

*Event-orientied synchronisation.
*Synchronisation by batch operation.
*Adaption ( direct access to external datasources or external services ).
*Service proxy ( link to the synchronous ERP world.
