AWS IOT

AWS IoT provides secure, bi-directional communication between internet-connected devices, such as:

Sensors
Actuators
Embedded micro-controllers
Smart appliances
AWS Cloud

This enables the collection of telemetry data from multiple devices and the storage and analysis of the data. You can also create applications to enable user to control these devices from their phones or tablets.

Rules engine

The Rules engine provides message processing and integration with other AWS services. A SQL-based language is available to:

Select data from message payloads.
Process and send the data to other services (for example, Amazon S3, Amazon DynamoDB, and AWS Lambda).

The message broker can be used to republish messages to other subscribers.

Jobs service

The Jobs service defines a set of remote operations that are sent to and executed on one or more devices connected to AWS IoT.

For example, you can define a job that instructs a set of devices to download and install application or firmware updates, reboot, rotate certificates, or do remote troubleshooting operations.

To create a job, specify a description of the remote operations to be performed and a list of targets that should do them. The targets can be individual devices, groups or both.

Use the AWS public cloud integration to discover and collect metrics against the AWS service.
