Niagara Cloud Suite: Improving Building Management with Remote Solutions

October 8, 2024

The Niagara Cloud Suite™ is a comprehensive, cloud-based solution that enhances building management by enabling remote access, integration, and monitoring. Built on the robust Niagara Framework®, it offers users a seamless and scalable approach to managing buildings securely and efficiently, whether handling day-to-day operations or safeguarding vital data.

Key Applications of Niagara Cloud Suite

The Niagara Cloud Suite offers a wide range of services tailored to the needs of modern building management, facilitating efficient and secure operations. These services include:

  • Niagara Recover™
  • Niagara Remote™
  • Niagara Data Service™

Each provides essential functionality for managing and protecting building systems.

Niagara Recover™: Data Backup and Recovery

One of the core services in the Niagara Cloud Suite, Niagara Recover™, focuses on providing a secure and scalable data backup solution. Users no longer have to worry about rebuilding configurations or managing limited local storage. With automated and on-demand backups, the service ensures that data from Niagara 4 devices, such as alarms, graphics, and histories, is securely stored in the cloud.

Key features of Niagara Recover™ include:

  • Automated and on-demand backups enriched with metadata.
  • Encryption for data both in transit and at rest.
  • Scalability, supporting backup of JACE or Supervisor stations without managing disk space.
  • Seamless integration into existing Niagara networks.

This service is precious in preventing data loss during planned or unplanned outages, allowing users to maintain continuity in building operations.

Niagara Remote™: Web-Based Remote Access

For real-time, web-based access to Niagara stations, Niagara Remote™ provides a streamlined solution. It eliminates the need for additional hardware, gateways, or VPNs, enabling users to manage Niagara networks from any Internet-connected device. This service enhances productivity, especially when troubleshooting or performing routine engineering and maintenance tasks.

Through Niagara Remote, users can:

  • Access Niagara Supervisors or JACE systems via a web browser.
  • Monitor operations and troubleshoot deployments remotely.
  • Identify and resolve issues more quickly, offering more responsive service.

This flexibility makes managing building systems from any location easier, streamlining operations across various sites.

Niagara Data Service™: Real-Time Data Integration

Niagara Data Service™ is another Software as a Service (SaaS) offering within the Niagara Cloud Suite, designed to enhance systems integration through live read-write APIs. By enabling API-based access to contextualised data, this service allows developers to integrate with Niagara Cloud Suite and automate workflows in real-time.

Niagara Data Service supports:

  • Near real-time data manipulation via APIs.
  • Aggregation of historical data from on-premise control networks.
  • Custom application development, allowing users to enhance and optimise their existing building management strategies.

This feature is ideal for those seeking to extend the functionality of the Niagara platform through custom solutions or integrations, enabling them to respond quickly to changing building conditions.
