AWS IoT Events

Telemetry data ingestion: AWS IoT Events helps you evaluate telemetry data to detect events in equipment or a process. IoT Events ingests raw data from any device connected to AWS IoT, processed data from AWS IoT Analytics, and data from third party applications via IoT Events’ direct ingest APIs.

Event detection: AWS IoT Events evaluates multiple telemetry inputs to detect events and derive the state of processes, equipment, or products by applying user-defined, conditional logic. Events are patterns of data identifying more complicated circumstances than expected, such as changes in equipment when a belt is stuck or motion detectors using movement signals to activate lights and security cameras. You can schedule maintenance and send alarms or alerts prior to device failure. If you have many devices using the same detector definition, you can easily launch a new instance of the detector for every unique value of the signal. You can automatically extend your event detection and action capabilities whenever a new device comes online allowing you take advantage of stateful complex event detection at scale. Events can be detected with simple’ if-then-else’ statements applied to incoming sensor data streams.

Automated actions: You can define actions to execute automatically when an event is detected. Actions can include publishing data to other AWS services, updating device properties, and invoking AWS Lambda functions. You can schedule maintenance and send alarms or alerts prior to device failure.

Scalability and extensibility: If you have many devices using the same detector definition, you can easily launch a new instance of the detector for every unique value of the signal. You can automatically extend your event detection and action capabilities whenever a new device comes online allowing you take advantage of stateful complex event detection at scale.

Complex event processing: AWS IoT Events lets you define complex event patterns using a visual editor or by writing code in the AWS IoT Events console. You can define states, transitions, and actions based on the detected events.

AWS integration: AWS IoT Events integrates with other AWS services such as AWS IoT Core, AWS IoT Analytics, AWS Lambda, and Amazon Simple Notification Service (SNS). This allows you to build end-to-end IoT solutions that can detect, analyze, and respond to events in real time.

Templates and examples: AWS IoT Events provides built-in templates and examples to help you get started quickly. You can also customize these templates to fit your specific needs.

Monitoring and alerting: AWS IoT Events helps you monitor the health and performance of your equipment and processes. You can set up alerts and notifications to be notified when events occur.
