FreeRTOS is an open source, real-time operating system for microcontrollers that makes small, low-power edge devices easy to program, deploy, secure, connect, and manage. – Amazon FreeRTOS
The Internet of Things Meetup was on Wednesday: AWS IoT Service Deep Dive with Vestner @ AWS Munich
First, Philip Sacha from AWS gave a deep dive into the AWS IoT services landscape. Then Vestner, who builds elevators, gave an overview on how they use the AWS IoT services.
AWS IoT services
The AWS IoT architecture is divided into three groups (see also Amazon IoT - What we offer):
- Device Software
- Connectivity & Control Services
- Analytics Services
Device Software consists of
- Amazon FreeRTOS
- AWS IoT Device SDK
- AWS IoT Greengrass
FreeRTOS 👀 again, which I already mentioned at the RISC-V Meetup last week. I (also) ordered a ESP-WROVER-KIT for FreeRTOS to play with FreeRTOS in the future: Getting Started with the Espressif ESP32-DevKitC and the ESP-WROVER-KIT
The following picture shows an overview of IoT with AWS:
Summary
It was an informative Meetup where I learned about What Is AWS IoT?
