This Guidance illustrates how to integrate Domatica EasyEdge with AWS IoT SiteWise. EasyEdge supports a broad range of industrial protocols, including S7 programmable logic controllers (PLC), Modbus, Ethernet, IP, Open Platform Communications Unified Architecture (OPC UA), and OPC Data Access (DA). Through a tight integration with AWS IoT SiteWise Edge, Easy Edge provides a seamless deployment, data processing and enrichment at edge before sending the data to AWS IoT SiteWise. The Guidance shows how to deploy EasyEdge as a Docker container to configure data flows and collect data from various sources. Sensor data is published as MQTT messages, processed locally, and securely transmitted to AWS IoT SiteWise, enabling real-time edge monitoring and cloud-based analytics to support operational decisions.

Well-Architected Pillars

The AWS Well-Architected Framework helps you understand the pros and cons of the decisions you make when building systems in the cloud. The six pillars of the Framework allow you to learn architectural best practices for designing and operating reliable, secure, efficient, cost-effective, and sustainable systems. Using the AWS Well-Architected Tool, available at no charge in the AWS Management Console, you can review your workloads against these best practices by answering a set of questions for each pillar.

The architecture diagram above is an example of a Solution created with Well-Architected best practices in mind. To be fully Well-Architected, you should follow as many Well-Architected best practices as possible.

  • AWS IoT SiteWise enables monitoring data collection, processing, and storage at the edge and cloud through Amazon CloudWatch logs and metrics and AWS CloudTrail. AWS IoT SiteWise offers bulk operations for changing information models at scale to adapt to evolving plant operations. Using AWS IoT SiteWise, you can track data collection, processing, and storage through CloudWatch logs and metrics.

    Read the Operational Excellence whitepaper 

  • AWS IoT SiteWise helps ensure that data is encrypted at rest. You can protect data in transit using TLS or at rest using client-side encryption. AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) policies follow the principle of least privilege. AWS IoT SiteWise Edge processing exposes TLS-encrypted APIs accessible over local networks, using server certificates and access control passwords stored on disk with file-system encryption. By leveraging these security measures, you can encrypt data at rest using AWS IoT SiteWise, Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3), and secure edge communications.

    Read the Security whitepaper 

  • AWS IoT SiteWise has throttling limits for cloud data ingress and egress, helping to ensure service availability. You can back up asset metadata and telemetry data using APIs and the Amazon S3-based cold storage tier. These fully-managed services operate across multiple Availability Zones within highly redundant global infrastructure of AWS.

    Read the Reliability whitepaper 

  • AWS IoT SiteWise provides flexible telemetry data ingestion options for real-time and batch processing, with hot, warm, and cold storage tiers for optimizing performance and cost. AWS IoT SiteWise Edge allows local data storage and processing for low-latency edge application access. These fully-managed services automatically scale up or down for optimal performance without over- or under-provisioning. By using the ingestion approaches, storage tiers, and edge capabilities of AWS IoT SiteWise, you can optimize performance for your industrial assets based on real-time needs, analytics requirements, and cost considerations.

    Read the Performance Efficiency whitepaper 

  • AWS IoT SiteWise offers cost-optimized ingestion methods and storage tiers (hot, warm, cold) for optimizing costs based on data access patterns. AWS IoT SiteWise Edge collects, stores, and processes data locally, reducing constant cloud data transfer needs.

    Read the Cost Optimization whitepaper 

  • AWS IoT SiteWise Edge filters incoming data, while retention period settings remove older data from hot and warm tiers when no longer needed. These fully-managed AWS services support sustainability of your workloads by avoiding over-provisioning, reducing on-premises infrastructure needs, and leveraging energy-efficient AWS data centers. By filtering data at the edge and cloud, you minimize the storage and processing resources required, effectively reducing your workload's environmental impact.
