Announcing AWS IoT SiteWise, Now Available in Preview

Posted on: Nov 26, 2018

AWS IoT SiteWise is a new managed service that makes it easy to collect and organize your data from industrial equipment at scale. You can easily monitor equipment across your industrial facilities to identify waste, such as breakdown of equipment and processes, production inefficiencies, and defects in products. 

Now with IoT SiteWise, industrial data is securely stored, available, and searchable in the cloud. You can integrate IoT SiteWise with your industrial equipment through a gateway. The gateway securely connects your on-premises data servers, collects data, and sends the data to the AWS Cloud. You can use IoT SiteWise on an AWS Snowball Edge gateway or you can install the IoT SiteWise software on common third-party industrial gateways, gateways specifically designed for industrial environments that are likely already in your facilities connecting your industrial equipment. Your gateway will interface directly with onsite servers that store equipment sensor data from manufacturing lines and assembly robots.

IoT SiteWise provides customizable views that allow you to create and personalize dashboards to deliver your equipment and process data in a format that best helps you accomplish your operational goals. You can group equipment or processes together so you can have the information you need organized in the way you need it. You can also download data as a CSV for offline analysis.

You can use IoT SiteWise to monitor operations across facilities, quickly compute common industrial performance metrics, and build applications to analyze industrial equipment data, prevent costly equipment issues, and reduce production inefficiencies. With IoT SiteWise, you can focus on understanding and optimizing your operations, rather than building costly in-house data collection and management applications. IoT SiteWise is available in preview in the US West (Oregon), US East (Northern Virginia), and EU (Ireland) regions.
