Creating static IP addresses and custom domains for AWS IoT Core endpoints
The Internet of Things (IoT) describes services and solutions to monitor and control real world objects, such as industrial equipment, light switches, thermostats, sensors and actuators. AWS offers the AWS IoT Core service that allows such devices to connect to the AWS Cloud. The AWS IoT Message Broker is the central point to securely transmit […]
Read MoreHow to implement zero trust IoT solutions with AWS IoT
Introduction Zero trust is often misunderstood. It’s not a product but a security model and associated set of architectural principles and patterns. One of the main challenges customers face is determining how zero-trust principles can be applied to Internet of Things (IoT) and how to get started with incorporating zero trust with Amazon Web Services […]

Learn some of the best practices for keeping your IIoT infrastructure secure using AWS’s multilayered security approach and comprehensive security services and features.
Read MoreGetting started with MQTT retained messages for AWS IoT Core
AWS recently announced the general availability of MQTT retained messages for AWS IoT Core. This feature allows you to store a single message per a given MQTT topic for delivery to any current and future topic subscribers. Creating a retained message simply requires setting a retained flag when publishing to let the AWS IoT Core […]
Read MoreConnecting with mobile BLE to AWS IoT Core using FreeRTOS and Nordic nRF52840-DK
As an IoT solution architect, customers often ask me how they can connect to AWS IoT Core (cloud) using a microcontroller unit (MCU). One solution is to use Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) as the connection from the MCU to a mobile device; from there, the mobile device connects to the cloud. BLE works for consumer […]
Read MoreSecurely ingesting large-sized payloads from IoT devices to the AWS Cloud
AWS IoT Core lets you securely ingest payloads from IoT devices to the AWS Cloud at a large scale—supporting billions of devices and trillions of messages. It also lets you process the messages and manage the devices from the cloud reliably and securely. One challenge you may have faced while designing your solution with AWS […]
Read MoreBuild your pool water temperature monitoring solution with AWS
I live in Toulouse, in the south of France, where the climate is classified as humid subtropical climate (Cfa in the Köppen climate classification). This is why swimming pools are so common here! My household is no exception. But as a geek, I also wanted to monitor the temperature of my swimming pool, consult real-time […]
Read MoreDesign IoT jobs for rapid large scale device updates with advanced device group target patterns
Customer IoT applications require rapid over the air (OTA) updates to maintain the state of their IoT things. This becomes increasingly important as IoT fleets grow. Jobs for AWS IoT Device Management is a feature to push updates to targeted edge devices. Each job targets devices in static or dynamic AWS IoT thing groups. Static […]
