HighByte Intelligence Hub v4.4

Industrial DataOps platform for modeling, orchestrating, and governing operational data at the edge — code-free, scalable, and enterprise-ready.

Connect, Model, and Orchestrate Your Industrial Data

HighByte Intelligence Hub is the leading Industrial DataOps solution that connects, models, conditions, and orchestrates OT data without code. Deploy at the edge to transform raw industrial data into contextualized, analytics-ready information for AI/ML, cloud platforms, and enterprise systems.

What is HighByte Intelligence Hub?

A no-code Industrial DataOps platform that sits between your OT systems and cloud/analytics destinations, transforming raw data into governed, contextualized information.

Version 4.4 — What's New

The latest release introduces AI-powered pipeline creation, federated data planes, native Databricks streaming, and industrial MCP services.

Central Data

Federated data plane across systems and networks. The central hub can see the namespace of remote hubs and build pipelines that draw from remote data sources — enabling enterprise-wide data orchestration without data movement.

Pipeline AI Agent

In-app AI agent connected to your LLM of choice. Conversationally summarize, create, and edit pipeline configurations using natural language — "Explain what this Pipeline does" or "Create a data flow that subscribes to boiler topic...".

Databricks Zerobus

Native streaming ingestion directly into Databricks Delta tables — reducing dependency on intermediate streaming services for this specific data path. Low-latency, automatic table creation, and schema evolution.

i3X API (Alpha)

CESMII's Industrial Information Interoperability eXchange (i3X) standard. Enables standardized, vendor-neutral data exchange across industrial ecosystems. Note: The i3X specification is still in development — this alpha implementation is not recommended for production use.

Internal Subscriptions

Subscribe to changes across complex objects — Instances, Namespaces, and OPC UA Branches. Build event-driven pipelines that react to structural changes in your data model.

MCP Services

Industrial MCP Server exposes data pipelines as "tools" for AI agents. MCP Client connects to third-party MCP servers. Bridge your industrial data with the AI agent ecosystem.

Architecture & Data Flow

See how HighByte Intelligence Hub fits into your industrial data architecture — from sensors to AI.

End-to-End Data Pipeline

HighByte Intelligence Hub sits at the edge between your OT infrastructure and IT/cloud systems. It ingests raw data from PLCs, sensors, and SCADA systems via OPC UA, MQTT, and other protocols. The platform then models this data into meaningful hierarchies, applies conditioning rules (deadband, aggregation, transformation), and orchestrates delivery to destinations like MQTT brokers, cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, GCP), data lakes (Databricks, Snowflake), and enterprise applications.

Central Data Federation

With v4.4's Central Data feature, multiple Intelligence Hub instances can be federated into a unified data plane. A central hub can discover the namespace of remote hubs and build pipelines that pull data across sites — enabling enterprise-wide analytics without centralizing raw data.

Use Cases

Real-world applications powered by HighByte Intelligence Hub.

Electronic Batch Reporting

Automate batch record creation by pulling data from MES, PLCs, and quality systems into standardized reports — reducing manual effort from hours to minutes.

First-Pass Yield Optimization

Correlate process parameters with quality outcomes in real-time. Identify root causes of yield loss and enable predictive adjustments before defects occur.

Predictive Asset Maintenance

Stream vibration, temperature, and operational data to cloud ML models. Detect anomalies early and schedule maintenance before unplanned downtime occurs.

OEM Cloud Services

Equipment manufacturers embed HighByte to securely collect data from deployed machines, enabling remote monitoring, digital twins, and value-added cloud services.

Why HighByte?
