In this post, we summarize the new features and enhancements AWS IoT SiteWise launched in 2020 to improve customer experience to optimize industrial operations, and improve productivity and availability of industrial equipment. This post is summarized into the following sections: Enhanced security More options for data ingestion and edge processing Greater asset modeling flexibility Out […]

Many IoT devices rely on Low-Power Wide-Area Networks (LPWAN) to connect their fleets. Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, or wired Ethernet serve an important role in providing connectivity, but these connections have limited range. Cellular connectivity may require expensive monthly service fees which can consume high power and limits the battery life of small, low-bandwidth sensors or devices. […]

At AWS, we build technology to help customers and partners like Bose, Vizio, LG, British Gas Centrica Connected Home, Ayla, NXP, and more solve real world problems and unlock possibilities to create better business outcomes and new consumer experiences. Yesterday, IoT World named AWS IoT the “Best Consumer IoT Solution” for 2020. We are grateful to […]

Interview with Nihar Patel and Sarah Cooper Together with Amazon Web Services (AWS) and integration partner Siemens, Volkswagen is opening up the Industrial Cloud to other companies from the engineering and technology sectors. In an interview, leading managers Nihar Patel (Executive Vice President New Business Development at Volkswagen AG.) and Sarah Cooper (General Manager of […]

AWS continually evolves our edge computing offerings to provide customers with the technology they need to extend AWS services to edge devices, such as consumer products or manufacturing equipment, and enable them to act intelligently. This helps customers avoid unnecessary cost and latency, and empower customers with the ability to manage edge devices securely and […]

Enabling operational data connectivity to AWS IoT Greengrass seamlessly extends AWS to the edge to provide tools to act locally on the OT data, while still using the cloud for management, analytics, and durable storage. With AWS IoT Greengrass and the Cirrus Link MQTT Transmission module on the Ignition platform from Inductive Automation, industrial data […]

Introduction Solutions architects, developers, and system designers building IoT solutions need ways to properly secure data and functions that operate on data across the entire solution landscape. In this post, we describe a few design options for scaling authorization policies focused on multi-user and multi-device use cases with AWS IoT Core. We cover several scenarios, […]

Across numerous types of implementations, a large portion of IoT applications collect large volumes of telemetry data. From industrial use cases to healthcare, and from consumer goods to logistics, IoT telemetry data points are highly time-dependent. In most IoT solutions, when the data is collected and reported matters for several reasons. For instance, in attribution […]

Many embedded architectures include a connectivity processor connected to one or more secondary processors that perform business logic. The ability to perform secondary processor over-the-air (OTA) updates is just as critical as updating the connectivity processor. This is because it allows for low-cost patching of bugs and security vulnerabilities as well as delivering new features […]

This post covers the use case of an organization creating voice-enabled features for its customers. The example use case is building a smart hotel environment that allows hotel guests and employees to use voice commands to control devices within hotel rooms. Throughout this post, we focus on the integration between Amazon Alexa, Amazon API Gateway, […]
