AWS IoT SiteWise announces new generative AI-powered industrial assistant

Posted on: Nov 18, 2024

AWS IoT SiteWise is a managed service that simplifies the collection, organization, and monitoring of industrial equipment data at scale. Today, we are excited to announce the general availability of AWS IoT SiteWise Assistant, a generative AI-powered assistant in AWS IoT SiteWise that allows industrial users to gain insights, solve problems, and take actions from their operational data and other data sources intuitively using natural language queries.

With the AWS IoT SiteWise Assistant, you can easily interact with your operational data by clicking on alarms in the SiteWise Monitor dashboard to get summaries or by asking questions like "What assets have active alarms?" or "How do I fix the wind turbine's low RPM issue?". The assistant understands the context of your industrial data in AWS IoT SiteWise from sources like sensors, machines, and related processes, and then contextualizes the data with your centralized knowledge base using Amazon Kendra to provide useful insights, empowering faster decision making to reduce downtime, optimize processes, and improve productivity.

AWS IoT SiteWise Assistant introduces new APIs that allow industrial solutions to access these insights on-demand. Developers can integrate capabilities of the Assistant into their industrial applications using updated IoT AppKit widgets like Chatbots, Line Charts, and KPI Gauges. Additionally, a Preview of the new Assistant-aware AWS IoT SiteWise Monitor portal offers a no-code experience for visualizing key data-driven insights.

AWS IoT SiteWise Assistant is now available in US East (N. Virginia), US West (Oregon), Asia Pacific (Sydney), and Europe (Ireland). Check out the user guide, API reference, and launch blog to learn more.
