AWS IoT Device Management adds a unified connectivity metrics monitoring dashboard

Posted on: Jun 6, 2024

Today, AWS IoT Device Management announced the launch of a new connectivity metrics dashboard, enabling customers to easily identify connectivity patterns and configure operational alarms for their device fleet through a unified view. AWS IoT Device Management is a fully managed cloud service that helps you register, organize, monitor, and remotely manage Internet of Things (IoT) devices at scale. With this launch, you can now select and view a range of connectivity metrics sourced from AWS IoT Core and AWS IoT Device Management on a single page.

The connectivity metrics dashboard consolidates frequently used metrics from AWS IoT Core, such as successful connections, inbound/outbound messages published, and connection request authorization failures. Additionally, you can use the guided workflow to enable AWS IoT Device Management’s Fleet Indexing feature and add widgets for connected device counts, percentage of devices disconnected, and disconnect reasons to the same page. Using the unified dashboard, you can quickly identify potential connectivity and operational problems to reduce the time associated with fleet troubleshooting procedures.

To get started with the connectivity metrics dashboard, visit the ‘Monitor’ tab in the AWS IoT console and then select the new ‘Connectivity metrics’ page.
