Introduction IoT applications are synonymous with the Publish / Subscribe (PubSub) model where distributed services communicate via event triggered messages. The PubSub model offers flexibility in design and is well suited to event-driven distributed IoT systems. However, this flexibility puts many design decisions in the hands of the developer that creates dependencies across systems, services […]

Introduction Industrial digital transformation is driving changes to the Operational Technology (OT) landscape, making it more connected to the internet and IT systems and solutions. With OT/IT convergence, OT environments are leveraging more IT solutions to improve productivity and efficiency of production operations. Industrial customers can use AWS edge and cloud services to securely access […]

As computing power extends into Internet of Thing (IoT) devices, software becomes more and more crucial to making decisions, processing data, and providing insight to end users at the device. Devices are the backbone of many businesses and applications. Regardless of the use case, customers benefit from quick, widespread deployment of software updates and improvements […]

U.S. prescription medications costs are approaching $500 billion a year and growing up to 7% annually, according to a House Ways and Means Committee report.
