Summary

In this chapter, you have learned about the IoT cloud or IoT backend, in particular the IoT cloud infrastructure.

Now, you will be able to identify and evaluate the different infrastructure options for your IoT cloud, whether it is private, public, or hybrid cloud, whether you will use a VM or container, whether you will use Kubernetes or not, and which option of Kubernetes to choose: managed Kubernetes services or the DIY Kubernetes option.

You also learned about the AWS cloud, its structure, and the different services and solutions it provides that can help you to design and deliver a production-grade and large-scale end-to-end IoT solution on AWS.

In the next chapter, we will cover the second part of the IoT cloud or IoT backend. We will cover the different IoT applications and solutions provided by the AWS IoT platform.
