Introduction Today, most automotive manufacturers depend on workers to manually inspect defects during their vehicle assembly process. Quality inspectors record the defects and corrective actions through a paper checklist, which moves with the vehicle. This checklist is digitized only at the end of the day through a bulk scanning and upload process. The current inspection […]

Introduction Water meters are present at almost every location that consumes water, such as residential houses or large-scale production plants. Avoiding water loss is increasingly important as water shortages are more frequent across all continents. Due to an aging infrastructure, 30% of water flowing through pipes is lost to leaks (AWS announces 6 new projects […]

Introduction The National Fire Protection Association records over one million fires each year. These fires rank as one of the top threats to urban safety in the United States. Currently, fire departments largely rely on traditional fire detection systems composed of in-home smoke detectors, fire call boxes, and public notification (calls) to receive their alerts. […]

Introduction Critical infrastructure customers are challenged to make industrial networks more accessible without significantly increasing cybersecurity risks. This is due in part to the common practice of using Industrial IoT (IIoT) and cloud technologies to analyze large volumes of industrial data to improve operational efficiencies. To be successful, this practice requires a balance between advancing […]

This blog post introduces a real-world use case from Internet of Things (IoT) service providers that use Disaster Recovery for AWS IoT to improve the reliability of their IoT platforms. IoT service providers, especially those running high-reliability businesses, require consistent device connectivity and the seamless transfer of connectivity configurations and workloads to other regions when […]

Introduction Designing and developing a cost-efficient, cloud-connected video platform for surveillance cameras and smart home devices require developers to architect and integrate a streaming service capable of ingesting, storing, and processing unstructured media data at scale. The infrastructure behind such a platform needs to handle large volumes of predicated data load along with the flexibility […]

Introduction Building a resilient path to post-pandemic recovery requires adaptability to dynamic trends. Therefore, many logistics leaders use predictive analytics to drive supply chain decisions, improve internal operational processes, meet regulatory compliance, and reduce transportation maintenance costs. Use cases for advanced predictive analytics in logistics include transportation management, fleet management, last-mile delivery, and visibility into […]

This blog post introduces a real case from a world-class commercial IoT service provider that uses AWS IoT to run its telemetry data analytics business that fulfills diverse and real-time data analysis requirements for clients. The key challenge the business faced was ingesting telemetry data in different formats to AWS IoT and generating real-time data […]
