Abstract: A building management system (BMS) includes building equipment configured to provide raw data samples of one or more data points in the BMS. The BMS further includes a data collector configured to collect raw data samples from the building equipment and generate one or more raw data timeseries comprising a plurality of the raw data samples. The BMS also includes a timeseries processing engine. The timeseries processing engine is configured to identify one or more timeseries processing workflows that apply to the raw data timeseries, each of the workflows comprising a predefined sequence of timeseries processing operation. The timeseries processing engine is further configured to process the raw data timeseries using the identified timeseries processing workflows to generate one or more derived data timeseries. The BMS further includes a timeseries storage interface configured to store the raw data timeseries and the derived data timeseries in a timeseries database.

Abstract: A system for managing communication between building management system (BMS) devices includes a memory and a controller. The memory includes instructions stored thereon. The controller is configured to execute the instructions to implement an agent manager, a zone manager, and a channel manager. The agent manager is configured to generate an agent for each of the BMS devices. The zone manager is configured to define at least one zone relating to a physical location zone or a building control zone. The channel manager is configured to generate a communication channel associated with the at least one zone. The channel manager is further configured to manage registration of an agent to the communication channel, wherein an agent is configured to communicate over a communication channel in response to being registered to the communication channel.

Abstract: A building management system (BMS) includes building equipment configured to provide raw data samples of data points in the BMS, a data collector configured to generate raw data timeseries including raw data samples from the building equipment, and a timeseries processing engine. The timeseries processing engine is configured to identify an initial timeseries processing workflow that applies to the raw data timeseries, identify other data timeseries required as inputs to the initial timeseries processing workflow, and generate an enriched timeseries processing workflow that includes the initial timeseries processing workflow, the raw data timeseries, and the other data timeseries. The timeseries processing engine is configured to execute the enriched timeseries processing workflow to generate a derived data timeseries. The BMS further includes a timeseries storage interface configured to store the raw data timeseries and the derived data timeseries in a timeseries database.
