2020 Virtual Spring Meeting and 16th GCPS
(182b) Data Analytics and Presentation Using Django Webserver
Receiving alarm and sensor data on phone and IPad may drastically improve response time to alarms and process upset conditions. Setting up a webserver with Python engine backend such as Django can reduce the setup time and provide all capabilities available on Python programming language for data analysis. Besides, a web application can easily be used on any device or turned to an app on IOS or Android devices.
During this presentation, we will setup a very simple Django server, reading data from OPC server and connect it to phone and show how easy it is to bring data to phones from factory level. In another session, we will present the security considerations for this application.
