#261 nHaystack and Niagara 4

Christian Tremblay Sun 8 Mar 2015

First thing we see is that it will be possible to tag data and there's a tag-based navigation. No mention about any standard...

Did you guys had the opportunity to check if haystack will fit ?

Hi Christian,

Mike Jarmy and I have already started discussing this.

We are making some initial plans regarding nhaystack and Niagara 4 but we are hoping to have a proper proposal available for comment at Haystack Connect.

Also we are already doing some development work in this area but to be honest it's mostly exploratory at this point.

Lastly, I'm not aware of an official release date for Niagara 4 so whether or not we will have something ready at the same time kind of depends on Tridium's timetable.

Feel free to stay in touch on this topic if you're interested in how we are progressing.

As Richard said, we've already talked it over some. For starters I mainly just want to make sure that nhaystack compiles and runs in N4 as-is.

Going forwards it will probably make sense to try to figure out how to adapt nhaystack so that it can export Tridium's new tagging model as well. It really depends on what we here in the community want.

I do not have a copy of N4 yet and am not aware of any firm release date.
