Why the name Canary Labs?

Canary Bird

The canary is particularly sensitive to toxic gases and was used by miners as an early warning device to detect gases that were invisible to the human senses. Any sign of distress from the canary was a clear signal that the conditions underground were not safe. Miners were able to evacuate safely, saving countless lives.

In a similar way, Canary Labs' Historian Trending tools provide operators access to invisible process variables that are not easily detected. This provides early warning alerts to problems that can be resolved before they become disasters.

" Through Canary Labs, the added access to historical data trends of plant equipment by the maintenance and engineering staff, has improved troubleshooting methods and enhanced the ability of predictive maintenance. The final outcome is that the Canary software has improved our productivity. "
