Introducing AWS CloudFormation Template Support for AWS IoT Analytics

Posted on: Dec 17, 2018

Today, AWS IoT Analytics added support for AWS CloudFormation with templates for data ingestion and analytical patterns. CloudFormation provides a common language for you to describe and provision all the infrastructure resources in your cloud environment and simplifies the roll out across multiple AWS accounts and/or regions with just a couple of clicks.  

With CloudFormation, you can automate creation of IoT Analytics resources such as Channels, Pipelines, Data stores, and Data sets, and easily create patterns for data ingestion and analysis workflows. CloudFormation also reduces the potential for manual error, increases efficiency, and ensures consistent configurations over time.

The CloudFormation templates for IoT Analytics are now available in all AWS Regions where IoT Analytics is offered. Learn more about how to use IoT Analytics with CloudFormation.
