Extend DataForeman with optional add-ons
Extensions are optional packages that add capabilities beyond the core platform. They are installed through the DataForeman UI and run as separate Docker services — no changes to the core installation required.
Forecast Extension
Add AI-powered time-series forecasting directly to your historian data. The Forecast extension uses Amazon Chronos-2, a state-of-the-art foundation model for time-series prediction — running entirely on your own hardware with no cloud dependency.
- ✅ Predict future values for any tag or calculated signal
- ✅ Two model sizes: Chronos-2 (120M, highest accuracy) and Chronos-2 Small (28M, faster)
- ✅ Runs locally — data never leaves your network
- ✅ Model downloads automatically on first use (~700 MB), cached after that
- ✅ Configurable horizon, context window, and sampling parameters
Advanced Math Extension
Extends Flow Studio with advanced mathematical processing nodes for time-series signals and industrial calculations. Adds a dedicated Advanced section inside the Logic & Math node category — no configuration required beyond installation.
- ✅ Rate of Change — detect how fast a signal is changing per unit time
- ✅ Rolling Average — smooth noisy signals with a configurable sliding window
- 🔜 Counter / Totalizer — accumulate values or count events over time (coming next)
- ✅ Lightweight — no additional services, runs inside the core engine
- ✅ Works with any numeric tag or calculated signal
