AWS IoT Events actions now support AWS IoT SiteWise and Amazon DynamoDB as targets

Posted on: Apr 21, 2020

When using AWS IoT Events, you now have the option to define actions to write to AWS IoT SiteWise properties and Amazon DynamoDB tables. Previously, you could define actions to publish messages to six AWS services - AWS Lambda, Amazon Simple Queue Service (SQS), Amazon Simple Notification Service (SNS), Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose, AWS IoT Events, and AWS IoT Core. These expanded actions make it easier to build remote condition monitoring applications that help you quickly understand the state of your devices by providing more options to trigger actions on changes detected by AWS IoT Events.

These new actions are available in all regions where AWS IoT Events is available. To get started, open the IoT Events console and select a state for a detector model. Then add an event to the state, and select from the list of available actions.
