Collecting vehicle data more efficiently with AWS IoT FleetWise
Today, we think of connected vehicles as an advanced class of vehicle with internet connectivity. However, we will soon refer to these simply as vehicles, since by 2030, over 95 percent of new vehicles sold globally will be connected to the internet, up from about 50 percent today.¹ Greater vehicle connectivity gives automakers opportunities to […]
How 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 […]
AWS IoT Greengrass now supports the Windows operating system
Introduction Microsoft Windows is a common operating system for devices used in industrial automation. Customers using AWS IoT Greengrass have been restricted to Linux based devices until now. Today we are excited to announce native Windows support for AWS IoT Greengrass v2. This will allow customers to leverage AWS IoT Greengrass on their Windows based […]
Ingesting Data from S3 by Using BatchPutMessage, AWS Lambda, and Amazon Kinesis
AWS IoT Analytics is a fully managed service that you can use to query and generate insights about your IoT data. You might want to use AWS IoT Analytics on data that is not being sent to the AWS IoT Core message broker. By using the AWS IoT Analytics BatchPutMessage API, you can ingest data directly into […]
Build a proof-of-concept IoT solution in under 3 hours with the AWS IoT Device Client
Introduction You may be starting on your IoT journey, or have thousands of devices connected already. Maybe you just built an IoT business application, and want to deploy it to your fleet. You’re looking for a way to build functionality to control, update, monitor, or secure your IoT devices. To guide you through this process […]
Find runtime errors in AWS IoT Events detector models using type checking
Customers use AWS IoT Events detector models to describe equipment states and the events that affect these states. A detector model in AWS IoT Events contains expressions written in the AWS IoT Events expression language. An expression can have one of four primitive data types: integer, string, decimal, or Boolean. By checking your expressions for correct […]
How QuantumCrayon is developing the next generation of technologists in South Africa with AWS IoT EduKit
QuantumCrayon recently ran two educational programs, one with 30 high school students in Gqeberha and another with 75 high school students in Soshanguve. Both of these programs included a curriculum focused on IoT development. As part of the hands-on learning component, students prototyped and demonstrated solutions to tackle challenges in the local minibus taxi industry.
Monitor and visualise building occupancy with AWS IoT Core, Amazon QuickSight and Raspberry Pi
Occupancy monitoring in buildings is a valuable tool across different industries. From healthcare to industrial, and from entertainment to retail, customers are looking for modern and scalable IoT solutions to make practical business decisions. For example, many exhibitions in public art museums employ an open-ended approach, where there is no clear starting or finishing point […]
Securely 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 […]
Design 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 […]
