AWS IoT Events Documentation

AWS IoT Events is a managed service that helps you detect and respond to events from IoT sensors and applications.

Telemetry data ingestion

AWS IoT Events helps you evaluate telemetry data to detect events in equipment or a process. IoT Events is designed to ingest raw data from a 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 is designed to evaluate 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. You can schedule maintenance and send alarms or alerts in an effort to reduce the risk of unexpected device failure. If you have many devices using the same detector definition, the service is designed so you can launch a new instance of the detector for every unique value of the signal. The service is also designed so you can extend your event detection and action capabilities when a new device comes online.

Scalability

AWS IoT Events is designed to scale when you are connecting many devices. Define a model for a specific device, and the service is designed to scale and manage devices of that model that connect to IoT Events. If an event is detected on one device or many, IoT Events is designed to trigger the appropriate reaction or alert.

Alarms

AWS IoT Events is designed to help you evaluate equipment behavior or identify equipment performance issues based on industrial data in the cloud. Once an alarm has been defined, the service is designed to allow operators to take actions to acknowledge, snooze or disable the alarm.
