Feed: The Internet of Things on AWS – Official Blog. Author: Channa Samynathan. The following is a survey paper, published and presented to the Academic Congress of Embedded World 2022 at Nuremberg, Germany on June 21st 2022. Abstract Embedded edge devices with multi-sensor data sources are proliferating at an accelerating rate. Devices must be designed, manufactured, installed, connected, and controlled through seven distinct logical layers to securely connect and interact with complementary cloud-based and edge-based components to deliver business value. These Internet of Things (IoT) applications must gather, process, analyze, and act on data generated by the connected devices. In ... Read More

Perhaps you have your remote industrial assets connected or ready to connect to AWS, but haven’t decided on how to present the data to operators and maintenance teams. In this blog post, you will learn how to use the data ingested to AWS IoT core to enable field teams, with a centralized Grafana dashboard and alerts table. Industrial remote assets are many and from different technological eras, industrial customers ... Read More

Feed: The Internet of Things on AWS – Official Blog. Author: Ryan Dsouza. Introduction Industrial digital transformation can increase competitiveness and optimize processes and profitability through the use of big data, IoT, machine-to-machine communication, and machine learning. Continuous digitalization and progressive interconnectivity of the production environment is important to capturing value from industrial IoT (IIoT) solutions. While this new and expanding “physical meets digital” connectivity enables great rewards, it also introduces new risk, which needs to be properly managed. Industrial organizations should be aware of the risks that come along with the benefits of this convergence and cloud adoption. As ... Read More

Feed: The Internet of Things on AWS – Official Blog. Author: Adam Rasheed. In our prior blog, we discussed a definition and framework for Digital Twins consistent with how our customers are using Digital Twins in their applications. We defined Digital Twin as “a living digital representation of an individual physical system that is dynamically updated with data to mimic the true structure, state, and behavior of the physical system, to drive business outcomes.” In addition, we described a four-level Digital Twin leveling index, shown in the figure below, to help customers understand their use-cases and the technologies needed to ...

This blog is co-authored by Ryan Dsouza, AWS and John Cusimano, Deloitte  Introduction Innovative and forward-looking oil and gas, electrical generation and distribution, aviation, maritime, rail, utilities, and manufacturing companies who use Operational Technology (OT) to run their businesses are adopting the cloud in many forms as a result of their digital transformation initiatives. Data lakes, Internet of Things (IoT), edge technology, machine-to-machine communication, and machine learning (ML) are enablers for this industrial digital transformation. This is driving changes to the OT landscape, and as these environments ... Read More

Feed: The Internet of Things on AWS – Official Blog. Author: Bryan Neff. Introduction Amazon Kinesis Video Streams (KVS) makes it easy to securely stream video from connected devices to AWS for analytics, machine learning (ML), playback, and other processing. KVS automatically provisions and elastically scales all the infrastructure needed to ingest streaming video data from millions of devices. It durably stores, encrypts, and indexes video data in your streams, and allows you to access your data through easy-to-use APIs. KVS enables you to play back video for live and on-demand viewing, and quickly build applications that take advantage of ... Read More

Feed: The Internet of Things on AWS – Official Blog. Author: Niten Jaiswal. Introduction Edge computing, also known as fog computing and mobile computing, is a computing model that brings processing and data closer to the customer. By moving data closer to the customer, organizations need to review, and possibly expand, their security controls to ensure that their data is protected. In this blog I want focus on how AWS IoT Services, specifically AWS IoT Greengrass V2, AWS IoT Core, AWS IoT Device Defender, and AWS IoT Device Manager, can help organizations extend their security controls for encrypting, accessing and ...
