Overview – AWS IoT Gateway
The AWS IoT Gateway feature is a data integration driver that an be configured either as a data source or a destination of your Tag data. If you want to receive data from AWS IoT you an set it up to receive data on a particular topic. If you want to publish data to AWS IoT you can configure each individual Tag with a topic or you can bulk publish by adding a list of tags to the AWS IoT driver that should be published. This also gives you the ability construct payloads in JSON format.
The AWS IoT driver supports configuration of the AWS IoT endpoint including the domain, client ID, X.509 certificate encryption as well as store and forward in case communication failure occurs.
If you source Tag data from AWS IoT you can then use features such as Data Logging, Alarm Logging and Notifications, Visualization components and API integration to create value form your data.
If you want to push Tag data sourced from your devices and databases into AWS IoT, you can use the AWS IoT tag publish feature or the Data Route feature to move data from your data source tags into the AWS IoT tags. This is a great way to integrate any of the OAS supported device protocols, such as Modbus, Allen Bradley, Siemens, MT Connect and OPC UA/DA with AWS IoT.
