Introduction Critical infrastructure customers are challenged to make industrial networks more accessible without significantly increasing cybersecurity risks. This is due in part to the common practice of using Industrial IoT (IIoT) and cloud technologies to analyze large volumes of industrial data to improve operational efficiencies. To be successful, this practice requires a balance between advancing […]

Introduction Increasingly, business leaders are adopting Internet of Things (IoT) solutions to drive revenue growth, streamline operations, and reduce costs. Managing security and safety considerations while connecting your assets to the cloud, whether they’re industrial machines or autonomous vehicles, can be challenging. In the Ten security golden rules for Industrial IoT (IIoT) Solutions, AWS recommends establishing secure […]

Introduction Honeybees live in swarms of tens of thousands, gathering nectar. In this process, they carry pollen from one flowering plant to another, pollinating them. ” Close to 75 percent of the world’s crops producing fruits and seeds for human use depend, at least in part, on pollinators[1]. ” As well as being one of nature’s key pollinators, bees transform […]

The new metric export feature of AWS IoT Device Defender provides a convenient and cost-effective way for you to export the device metrics from AWS IoT Device Defender to your data lake. With metric export capability, you can now export metrics with a simple configuration change without needing to make any changes to your device firmware. This blog gives an overview of how to configure this capability for new as well as existing workloads.

Introduction Connected mobility solutions are driving changes in the automotive industry. With remote commands, sensors, cameras, artificial intelligence, and 5G mobile networks, vehicles have become increasingly smart and connected. While connected mobility solutions deliver significant customer value, they also introduce new risks to security, safety, and privacy that must be properly managed. Automakers need to […]

When you set out to build an IoT SaaS platform where your customer, not you, determines how their IoT devices interact with the services, you will quickly understand that no single cloud architecture can be optimized for all scenarios. This blog post introduces an implementation strategy for building multi-tenant IoT SaaS platforms based on real […]

This blog post introduces a real-world use case from Internet of Things (IoT) service providers that use Disaster Recovery for AWS IoT to improve the reliability of their IoT platforms. IoT service providers, especially those running high-reliability businesses, require consistent device connectivity and the seamless transfer of connectivity configurations and workloads to other regions when […]

Introduction As our world becomes increasingly interconnected, the Internet of Things (IoT) is becoming an unavoidable part of our daily lives. IoT devices, ranging from smart thermostats in our homes to sophisticated sensors in industrial settings, are everywhere. However, the effective management of these devices throughout their lifecycle presents a significant challenge. AWS IoT services, […]

Tamagotchi Uni, the first model in the Tamagotchi series to be equipped with wi-fi connectivity, is now available. This new model allows Tamagotchi to connect directly to the internet and interact with other unique Tamagotchi from around the world. BANDAI CO., LTD., the company responsible for product development and sales, adopted AWS IoT to realize […]

Research suggests that Internet of Things (IoT) solution implementations typically take an average of 18-24 months to reach the market and be ready for adoption. Common scenarios related to IoT solution development include device provisioning, telemetry collection, and remote command and control. Depending on your use case, prototyping a well-architected IoT solution requires considerations for good design principles and best practices for each of these scenarios. This post illustrates how you can adopt a prototyping design pattern that combines an AWS Cloud Development Kit (AWS CDK), AWS IoT Greengrass, and Docker to accelerate your IoT solution prototyping on AWS.
