NOTE: This post covers an important announcement related to renewal of Symantec Server Intermediate Certificate Authority (ICA) and an upcoming switch of AWS IoT Core – control plane endpoints and newly supported AWS IoT Core customer endpoints to TLS1.2 specification. Overview In this post, we discuss upcoming changes to Symantec Server Intermediate Certificate Authority (ICA) […]

Introduction This blog post represents the second entry in a series on using Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) with AWS IoT SiteWise. In this post, we will do a deep dive on how to calculate OEE using AWS IoT SiteWise native capabilities to collect, store, transform, and display calculations as an end-to-end solution. We will look […]

Introduction The new disconnected duration metric in AWS IoT Device Defender now provides AWS IoT Device Defender Detect customers the ability to monitor Internet of Things (IoT) device connectivity status and duration of disconnection. Until now, customers had to rely on custom self-managed solutions, using AWS Lambda or Amazon CloudWatch, and Connect/Disconnect event messages from […]

Introduction Designing and developing a cost-efficient, cloud-connected video platform for surveillance cameras and smart home devices require developers to architect and integrate a streaming service capable of ingesting, storing, and processing unstructured media data at scale. The infrastructure behind such a platform needs to handle large volumes of predicated data load along with the flexibility […]

Introduction Customers in manufacturing, logistics, and energy sectors often have stringent requirements for needing to run machine learning (ML) models at the edge. Some of these requirements include low-latency processing, poor or no connectivity to the internet, and data security. For these customers, running ML processes at the edge offers many advantages over running them […]

Introduction The Internet of Things (IoT) industry is trending towards devices that are compatible with the latest standards, interfaces, and protocols. To remain competitive, device manufacturers have to release new features, perform system updates, and deploy security patches in a timely manner. Software applications have long been using automated continuous integration and delivery (CI/CD) pipelines […]

Introduction AWS IoT SiteWise is a managed service that helps customers collect, store, organize and monitor data from their industrial equipment at scale. Customers often need to bring their historical equipment measurement data from existing systems such as data historians and time series databases into AWS IoT SiteWise for ensuring data continuity, training artificial intelligence […]

Introduction High-fidelity simulation is increasingly important during the development of robots and robotic applications. Virtual environments with photo-realistic objects, and robot models with accurate physics are essential for developing and testing robots that perform reliably on sophisticated tasks in the physical world.  Setting up a high-fidelity simulation, training, and testing environment, however, poses challenges. Installing […]

Introduction Today, we are excited to announce that AWS IoT FleetWise now supports object storage in Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3). This new feature makes it easy and cost-effective for automotive customers to create and manage data pipelines from their vehicles. A customer can now select where vehicle data is persisted in the cloud depending […]

Introduction When sending data from Internet of Things (IoT) devices to a data lake, you may need to enrich the device data payload with additional metadata in the cloud for further data processing and visualization. There are multiple reasons this data might not exist in the device payload, such as minimizing the device payload in […]
