The data historian market size has grown rapidly in recent years. It will grow from $1.51 billion in 2025 to $1.67 billion in 2026 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.6%. The growth in the historic period can be attributed to growing need for industrial automation, rising adoption of iot-enabled devices, increasing emphasis on operational efficiency, demand for compliance and environmental monitoring, expansion of manufacturing and industrial sectors.
The data historian market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $2.47 billion in 2030 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 10.3%. The growth in the forecast period can be attributed to integration of AI and machine learning for predictive analytics, growth in cloud-based historian solutions, rising adoption in energy and utilities sectors, deployment in smart factories and industry 4.0 initiatives, demand for real-time performance and production tracking. Major trends in the forecast period include real-time data capture, predictive maintenance analytics, operational performance optimization, environmental and compliance monitoring, scalable historical data storage.
The increasing industrial automation is expected to propel the growth of the data historian market going forward. Industrial automation refers to the use of control systems, such as computers and robots, to operate machinery and processes in manufacturing with minimal human intervention. Increasing industrial automation is driven by the demand for higher efficiency, labor cost reduction, and precision, as manufacturers seek to boost productivity, meet growing consumer expectations, and address labor shortages without compromising quality. A data historian stores detailed historical process data, allowing industrial automation systems to analyze past performance and identify opportunities to improve efficiency, reduce waste, and minimize downtime. For instance, in September 2024, according to the International Federation of Robotics, a Germany-based non-profit organization, China installed 276,288 industrial robots in 2023, accounting for 51% of the total global installations, marking the second-highest figure on record after 2022, which saw 290,144 units installed. Therefore, the increasing industrial automation is driving the growth of the data historian market.
Major companies operating in the data historian market are focusing on developing advanced solutions, such as software digitalization solutions, to improve contextual data capture, reporting accuracy, and digital transformation for batch-focused industries. A software digitalization solution converts traditional manual or analog processes into efficient digital workflows through the use of specialized software tools. For instance, in June 2024, Honeywell, a US-based industrial automation company, launched Honeywell Batch Historian, a software digitalization solution. It offers manufacturers easy access to contextualized historical data, enhancing reporting and analytics for more efficient and cost-effective operations. It enables direct data capture from batch engines without complicated setup or the need for advanced programming expertise. The solution uses an intuitive drag-and-drop configuration, removing the necessity for deep knowledge of historical databases to create reports. Serving industries such as specialty chemicals, life sciences, food and beverage, pulp and paper, and mining, it helps simplify batch reporting, accelerate troubleshooting, and ensure compliance with industry regulations.
In January 2023, Schneider Electric, a France-based industrial technology company, acquired AVEVA Solutions Limited for an undisclosed amount. Following the acquisition, AVEVA will operate as a wholly owned subsidiary of Schneider Electric. AVEVA will maintain its independence in business operations and continue investing in research and development to enhance its range of solutions. AVEVA Solutions Limited is a UK-based provider of data historian software and related services.
