This MIMIC MQTT lab demonstrates integration of Amazon AWS IoT Core and MIMIC MQTT Simulator to produce an out-of-the-box lab for immediate first-time setup and use of dynamically controllable device shadows. By having a quick, successful example, you will short-circuit integration of your own devices into AWS IoT.

This lab sets up within 5 minutes a realistic third-party MQTT-based sensor publishing JSON telemetry that fits the AWS IoT device shadow guidelines. There is no limit to the scalability, but we'll show 1 sensor setup automatically using the AWS API, and then you can try the same yourself on any number in the lab for your requirements.
