Industrial organizations rely on high-value (core) machinery such as processing plant crushers and conveyors for their factory operations. In these same factories, there are secondary (non-core) assets such as motors, pumps, and generators located on the periphery of customer sites, but many are physically isolated, disconnected, and legacy in nature. Urban.io’s Asset Monitoring Data Subscription solution removes the technical challenges typically required to connect these hard-to-reach assets within factories.

Customers across industries are looking to optimize business KPIs and outcomes throughout the product lifecycle. Enterprises can achieve this goal by using real-time insights from industrial assets provided by their digital twins, a unique data-driven approach has evolved to become a critical tool for accelerating enterprise digital transformation. Learn about the Atos Digital Twin Platform, its delivery methodology, the industry challenges it addresses, and the underlying reference architecture powered by AWS.

Advancements in IoT-supporting technologies, communications, and miniaturization have expanded the range of asset tracking to multiple industries and various asset types. Learn how HCLTech’s Intelligent Asset Tracking & Management (IATM) solution helps enterprises improve operations efficiency and productivity. IATM aims to digitally transform asset inventory management processes and improve asset visibility through proactive notifications and alerts to the asset manager.

Mobile devices with extremely long battery life are enabling new use cases and will cover a much larger part of the exponentially growing IoT market. Learn how the asset tracking devices developed by General Mechatronics and AWS enable a secure and scalable platform for novel IoT applications. General Mechatronics is an AWS Partner that’s supporting customers on IoT product development, including the operation of related IoT infrastructure.

Building IoT device hardware is complex, and hardware developers are looking for guidance on design considerations and development trade-offs to decrease design time and increase the value connected devices can bring. AWS works with IoT partners to simplify, accelerate, and optimize the device development journey. In this post, explore the hardware considerations and solutions offered by AWS Partners to address and minimize risk, time to market, and cost of IoT device development.

Enterprises demand secure wireless networks that can be trusted with mission-critical tasks. As digital transformation and the Internet of Things (IoT) become business imperatives, private 4G and private 5G networks must connect everything from robots, cameras, signage, and machinery to virtual reality applications. Learn how AWS and Deloitte enable modern enterprises to build their own private 4G or private 5G network solutions.

Current methods to increase farming yields include the application of chemical fertilizers and the widespread use of pesticides. Capgemini believes in sustainable IT solutions and developed “Smart Hub Cropping” which checks precipitation in the farming fields, combines weather data from the government, and analyzes agricultural data to provide farmers with actionable insights and automation of the irrigation process. All of this is aligned to the most needed farmer experience of higher crop yield.

The ConnectSense Smart Power Cord allows users to easily connect their legacy edge devices and machines to an IoT solution by simply plugging in. The ConnectSense Smart Power Cord on AWS Quick Start was developed by GridConnect in collaboration with Trek10. Learn how the Quick Start allows users to deploy secure environments on AWS for a variety of solutions, including mining IoT data and AI tools to help analyze the data and gather insights.

Introducing new touch points, such as Amazon Alexa for voice user interface, allows car manufacturers to design new user experiences offboard and open new business models. Reply, an AWS Premier Consulting Partner, works closely with several players in the automotive industry. Learn how one OEM, in partnership with Reply, has extended its connected vehicle platform with a set of features that enable new business logics corresponding to new remote functionalities for car management provided to drivers.

Within AWS IoT fleet deployments, each connected device needs to have unique, trusted, verifiable identity. While Linux OS provides strong protection from unauthorized user access, it’s still possible to compromise the system if the attacker has full physical access to the device. NXP EdgeLock SE050 prevents attackers from extracting the private key even if the physical integrity of the device is compromised and the attacker managed to get access to the device filesystem.
