Building IoT application in AWS

AWS IoT is a platform that enables you to connect, monitor, and control millions of IoT devices. It provides services that allow you to easily and securely collect, store, and analyze data from IoT devices. Let's understand AWS IoT services by looking at the following architecture diagram.

As shown above, an AWS IoT architecture flow typically starts with connecting IoT devices to the AWS IoT Core service. This can be done through various protocols such as MQTT, HTTP, and WebSockets. Once the devices are connected, data is collected and sent to the IoT Core service, where data is sent to the Device Gateway, where it is securely transmitted to the IoT Message Broker. The IoT Rules Engine processes and filters the data, which can then be sent to other AWS services for storage, analysis, and visualization. The IoT Shadow service can also be used to track the devices' status, even when offline.
