What about Process Information Systems?

Since I live and breathe the Process Industry, I have been pondering what can the future look like? Is there a new breed of systems in the future?

I think there are and I would like to see everyone's collective ideas.

What I see:
1. Process Historians are old
2. The do not handle the entire gamma of information
3. They certainly cannot deal with relational data well and are missing the boat on unstructured information.
4. They fall short on delivering a model that is not Tag based.
