The OSIsoft Message Format (OMF) defines a set of message headers and bodies that can be used to generate messages for ingestion into a compliant back-end system. The PI System and OCS both have a compliant OMF receiving endpoint.
OMF can be used to develop data acquisition applications on platforms and in languages for which there are no supported OSIsoft libraries.
