Amazon Web Services IoT

AWS IoT provides secure, bidirectional communication between internet-connected things (such as sensors, actuators, embedded devices, or smart appliances) and the AWS cloud. This enables you to collect telemetry data from multiple devices and store and analyze the data. You can also create applications that enable your users to control these devices from their phones or tablets.

AWS IoT components

In this section, we'll describe the components of AWS IoT:

Device gateway
Message broker
Rules engine
Security and identity service
Thing registry
Thing shadow
Thing shadow service

Accessing AWS IoT

AWS IoT provide the following tools to create and communicate with things:

AWS command-line interface (AWS CLI): Run commands for AWS IoT on Windows, macOS, and Linux. These commands allow you to create and manage things, certificates, rules, and policies. To get started, see the AWS CLI user guide (http://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/cli-chap-welcome.html). For more information...
